postcards: One Realtor's Idea of a Really Unique Business Card!
- 07/09/09 04:34 AM
One of our top customers, Dee Messing from First Team Real Estate in Southern California, faxed over an order form the other day. She needs more business cards. Here in California, a new bill was passed requiring that agents put their DRE license number on all of their marketing that is considered a "first point of contact" with the consumer. Business cards, flyers, postcards, etc. But Dee wanted something different. She wanted to stand out. She asked if I had any ideas how to make a business card really unique, and during that conversation, the idea of a "bookmark business card" came up. … (19 comments)
postcards: Anatomy of a Real Estate Logo Design
- 07/08/09 01:29 AM
Hi everyone! We've had a lot of inquiries lately on personal branding and logo design. What's involved, how much it costs, etc. Apparently, many agents are realizing that if they don't have a unique "look and feel", it may be difficult to distinguish themselves from the rest of the pack. As a result, I thought I'd share with you a little bit about the process. It's kind of fun to watch somthing go from a plain white "sheet of paper" (actually my computer monitor)...to a finished product. Well..in ths case, it's not quite finished yet...but hopefully will be by the end of the … (12 comments)

postcards: Is "Connie Clueless" Selling More Real Estate Than YOU???
- 05/03/09 08:06 AM
Rita Burke posted a great blog the other day about being at a garage sale...and overhearing a conversation between a woman and the homeowner. The woman turned out to be a Realtor (Rita aptly named her "Connie Clueless"), as it quickly became evident that "Connie" wasn't very polished, didn't know the local market at all, and well...also didn't have the greatest people skills.I hope Rita doesn't mind me using the "Connie Clueless" character here, but I wanted to post the comments I left on her blog...as its own blog here. The reason?? Most of the discussion at Rita's blog were commentaries regarding the lack of professionalism, … (13 comments)
