Some things to consider before going multi;
Some/most buyers will be put off if they see it with more than one agent. Thinking being if it’s on with two or more it must be difficult to shift.
Agents only get paid for results so are already highly motivated to sell and don’t need competition to spur them on.
With a multi-agency there is an incentive for the agent to push the first offer that comes along rather than maybe wait for a better buyer/price.
Much more stock is coming on to the market now and an agent will give more marketing coverage to a property they know they have more of a chance of earning a fee on. Where the odds are narrowed by a multi-agency both agents will give it less priority.
It has already been suggested by another poster a review on the feedback/ price may be in order.
Also worth looking at are making sure you have first class photos, first class floor plan, excellent property description, plus strong curb appeal, the agent does the viewings (not you) and your property presents internally as well as  possible. Also make viewings easy to arrange.
The days of stick a board outside and sell to a cash buyer are over, at least for the time being as the market has cooled considerably, thank God!
