I am doing an apartment shop and there is a target leasing agent I am supposed to shop. After six attempts, I finally reach the target leasing agent for the phone portion. However, she had to excuse herself from the phone for an appointment and gave me to another leasing agent. I have not yet made an appointment, but she does have my contact information and is supposed to follow up with me.
I notified the company I’m doing this for, as this was of no fault of my own. They said this was fine, but I still needed to schedule the in-person appointment with the original target.
So, my question is this… how do I schedule an appointment with the target person when I spoke to a different leasing agent on the phone? She will likely follow up with me via email or by phone and it seems awkward to tell her I don’t want an appointment with her and can I meet with her coworker instead. Any advice how I can handle this?
