How can I get buyers’ agents to show their clients my house when there are so many listed houses right now?

I have already been in contact with an agent whose buyers dragged her to our open house when they were supposed to be looking at a house across the street. Even though we were one of the clients top picks and we have offered to pay commission to her (nothing specific yet), she seems to be discouraging her clients from purchasing our property. Will this be common? Also, how can I let realtors know that they are welcome. I have just added the information to my website and to my flyers. Should I advertise this in the paper as well?

Listing is not an option, as our realtor (as buyers) looked at the numbers and said there just isn’t enough room to pay the full 6% commission.

He is always making me excuses that the market is slow but I know my house can sell because my house is beautiful. I’ve already had my house listed with this guy for over a month now and I haven’t even gotten an offer on it. My agent keeps telling me that he has put it on the MLS and realtor.com and sent out flyers for my home and spoken with other agents about it but I don’t think that is enough. He has only done six open houses for my house and it seems like he wants to do them only occassionally now and I want him to keep doing them because I don’t feel he is doing enough to sell my home. What can I do to fire him? I am in a three month contract with him and I am two months away before it expires, but i want to fire him now. what can i do?
