Tips to Generate Viral Marketing

Hi Everyone, I suggested a few blogs back that you should stay in touch with your clients via email by offering them something helpful such as a coupon for stuff around the house, discounts on entertainment or anything pertaining to Summer activities. Why? Well, people will forward these coupons to other friends who will see your name and you will stay on top of mind when they are thinking about making a decision about purchasing or selling their home. The simplest site I have found for coupons is www.e, and they have real coupons, like Old Navy, Target and Overstock.com is Eversavingcoupons.com. Other ones exist like www.lasummercoupons.com but that is geared more towards Southern California. I have not found of any gas coupon sites, I would be interested to see if anyone has come across that type of site as I think that would be helpful for marketing too.

 

Colorful Kitchens

Hi Everyone,

Who knew that this useless slab of rock in Brazil would end up on some kitchen counter in Anaheim? I always find those shows intriguing, like "How It's Made," and when I came across this picture of granite I thought it was pretty crazy because I did not know that there were that many colors available for a kitchen countertop. The feedback I'm still receiving from clients I talk with is that if home owner's are going to do any home improvements in Orange County they are keeping it to just the kitchen since that seems to be one of the biggest selling points or they are offering seller concessions so they can customize the kitchen with features such as granite countertops.

 

Exotic Granite?

Hi Everyone,

One of my colleagues referred me to this company in Anaheim, Principal Stone, for some really amazing exotic granite that is imported from Brazil. I had no idea that granite granite even existed in that many colors let alone the significant difference in quality compared to granite you would find at big chain stores. Although they don't do the fabrication on-site, they have an extensive network of fabricators that can help you with your project.

The real cool part about the site is that Principal Stone regularly update the new slabs of granite that get delivered on their website with really high quality pictures. Check out their site at www.principalstone.com as I often hear people ask me "where should I start for granite counter tops?" Well, here is one place to start in Orange County.

 

Borrower Short to Close?

Hi Everyone, One of my real estate agent contacts just closed a personal loan with this company because they needed to pay for some advertising to promote a new listing she received, however, she is waiting for commission checks. Money has been tight for her, but she is getting into the swing of things for the summer and has some buyers and listings. Anyway, she forwaded me info on this company that allowed her to borrower $10,000. Check it out! It's way better than a payday loan if you get short on cash for marketing or if a client is short to close on a transaction too (she has been encountering that scenario too) or whatever else. ad3

Agents your websites?

Hi Everyone,

I have to admit, some of these agents are killing me with their websites.   Honestly, they are not that complicated and you don't need to spend a lot of money.  For under $1,000 you can get a solid site from a company like www.diversesolutions.com, however, don't use their hosting it's way too high.  You can get really cheap hosting at www.nearlyfreespeach.net.  I'm just mentiong this becasuee I have seen what some of these agents spent on their sites and how some of these sites function, and they look awful.  Take my advice and stay within that budget. 

 

Senior Housing Options?

Hi Everyone, This link was forawrded to me regarding options for senior housing. The site provides research, evaluations and options regarding senior housing. If a senior wants to stay independent a lot of things needs to be considered such as groundskeeping, household maintenance and personal care. If this is your real estate niche, then the information on the site below is pretty helpful and it's free info too! Check it out below, you might get some information to pass on for your existing clients.
 

The ultimate Newspaper

Hi Everyone, Of course I am a huge fan of the Orange County Regsiter for my local news, however, being from the East Coast I gotta have my New York Times along with my Wall Street Journal. I always seem to get inspired by that paper from a business perspective and a creative perspective. They always have some impressive advertising which could inspire you to go into a particular creative direction for your business. Anyway, my subscription ran out for the New York Times and I have been searching for the best deal and this is what I found - $4.00 for 4 weeks.
 

Short Sale Tips!

Hi Everyone, I know from a lot of my real estate clients that short sales can be a nightmare, especially since nobody can guarantee if the transaction will ever close.

I am not sure what the specifics are for these short sale tips because I don't actually sell real estate, but he did tell me he learned a lot of valuable tips to ensure the transaction closes.

The Toll Roads in Southern California, this is great news!

Hi Everyone,

Here is a nice tip.  I recently bought a new car because I as annoyed at how much I was spending on gas.  So I got rid of my gas guzzling truck for a more fuel efficient car.  Of course, I left my transponder in the other car and I went on the toll road thinking that all was well with the world in my new car.   Eventually I remembered to place my old transponder into my new car, but I completely forgot about driving the toll road without the transponder. 

Eventually I receive a toll road violation in the mail for $49.57.  I called the Toll Roads a few minutes ago and they offered to remove it.  I did not even have to ask.  It was the easiest dispute I ever had to do with any company.
