marketing ideas: A National Sport That Depends on Local Involvement: Why Realtors (and their companies) Should Get Involved. - 07/05/08 01:07 PM
My daughter races a soapbox derby car. Recently she won her local event and was awarded the once in a lifetime opportunity to attend the All American Soapbox Derby Championship in Akron, Ohio.
Now, I confess that as supportive as I was of this pastime, I am not much involved in it.  My husband used to be a race car driver and is very enthusiastic about it, so I let him take care of the whole of it.  I like to say 'it is their Daddy/Daughter thing' and let them at it.
However, with her recent accomplishment, my involvement is now called … (4 comments)

marketing ideas: For Karen, Sheila and Shobha - A Peek at My Marketing Packet - 06/15/08 12:34 PM
I told Karen Dembsky (many months ago) and Sheila (many weeks ago) that I would post this and Shobha's post reminded me of my promise, so here it is.
Without showing too much of the package itself, below are some photos to kind of illustrate what I am talking about.
The Realtor packet that I have created uses a special poly folding file folder.  All of the information is contained in the file and is folded in a way to keep everything from falling out and is easily filed by agents so to keep it at their fingertips. I print up … (28 comments)

marketing ideas: Back on the Marketing Bus - Thanks Judy! ***OH NO!! Disaster Strikes!*** - 10/04/07 04:30 PM
Okay, If you read my blog at all (and thank you if you do) you know that business slowed down recently.  It's my fault and I'm trying to get things moving again.
My first task was to create a mailable flyer that I have used to target both smaller RE offices and individual agents.  It is the first step in a drip campaign that will hopefully open the door to some new partnerships.  However, It is not the personal approach that I usually take in approaching these things.
I was thinking of doing a Halloween or Autumn promotional item to deliver to local offices, … (32 comments)

marketing ideas: Marketing That Serves More Than Just Your need For Business - 09/10/07 12:00 PM
Real Estate is a service oriented business. Whether you are a Realtor, Mortgage broker, Stager, or otherwise, there is a certain amount of personal service that goes into the job - no matter how far removed you are from the clients themselves.  I truly feel that the most successful in this field gain fulfillment from the serving of others and those who do it foe purely selfish reasons are doomed for failure. In a business such as this, trust is paramount to a successful career and trust often begins with some level of personal connection - even if it is just a word … (17 comments)

marketing ideas: Every Day is a Holiday - 01/10/07 06:01 PM
Did you know that virtually every day is actually - officially - a holiday of some sort?  It's true!
When my girls were preschoolers, I stumbled upon a list of obscure and bizarre holidays that are truly real, established holidays.  I would pick from this list on random days to keep my girls occupied.  We celebrated many things like National Plant a Flower Day , Be an Angel Day, National Sea Monkey Day, and my personal favorite Chocolate Cake Day (it's January 27th, BTW).  It was a great resource to use for activities and fun - especially when I was at my wits end as to … (11 comments)
