I am too affraid to "TWEET" - 07/23/09 08:29 PM
I set up an account in Twitter a long time ago and have yet to make my first "Tweet."  I know with my OCD in full force, it would only be a matter of time before I am dropping 20-30 Tweets per day.  Is that good to do?  I don't even know! 
I have even heard a story on a local radio station as I was driving into work the other day saying that a man was out on a morning jog through his neighborhood and ran head first into a low level branch hanging over the sidewalk...Because he was face … (12 comments)

What does your DANCE look like... - 07/20/09 07:22 PM
I often tell a story of what my 30lb Pug - Pork does each morning.  We call it his food dance - I know, bare with me...  Every morning I wake up and head for the bathroom to start my day with a shower and what not.  Our dog, Pork, sleeps in our bed every night - since our 1 year old daughter was born (Pork was my wife's 1st baby).
Pork will nestle in under the covers and be sound asleep, snoring mind you until he hears me get up.  He will wait to hear the bathroom door open and … (1 comments)

Short Sale Success...Notice the Small Things... - 07/19/09 07:33 PM
I had been working on a Short Sale for over 4.5 months only to learn from the 1st mortgage company (WellsFargo) had closed the file over $3,800 that the 2nd mortgage (WellsFargo) had been requesting.  Let me back up - here is the info on the deal.  We have a 100% cash buyer ready to close.  I had an approval from the 1st and the 2nd said they needed to net 10% of what they were owed ($6,800).  The 1st said they would only give $3,000 - "not a penny more."  So we had a good old fashion stand off.
When I called … (4 comments)

Do you Webinar??? - 07/13/09 08:00 PM
I have been mulling over the idea of creating a Webinar to expand the reach of potential class attendance but have not pulled the trigger yet.  I wanted to come to ActiveRain community with a question - do you Webinar?
I am curious on feedback of what some of the best Webinars have been and what some of the worst have been and why?  It seems that more and more people are plugged into Webinars and we see them all over the place (even as I type, I see an ad on the right side of the screen) but what are … (2 comments)

Custom Top Producer Closing Action Plans can do more than Manage a Closing... - 07/12/09 11:26 AM
Custom built action plans in Top Producer can be one of the best ways to customize your business.  But have you ever run into activities that need to be date specific vs. starting from a certain date.  The custom closing plans in Top Producer 8i can help.  You can have activites happen prior to a specific date or after a specific date - all you need is a little creativity.  An example that I often use is for when I am teaching a class and want to do specific things prior to that class.
Here is a quick video on using … (6 comments)

Change your Top Producer 8i Backround :) - 07/08/09 08:08 PM
You may or may not know about this already but you can change your Top Producer backround in 8i now.  It is pretty neat to have a few more options to look at.  Here is a step by step guide:
Click on the "Preferences" tab in the upper right hand side of your screen. 

Then click on the "Theme" 

From there, you should be able to select from a drop down menu a list of different backrounds.

There is nothing to earth shattering about this post or changing the color but sometimes we need a little change up … (5 comments)

Listing Tip - Create a Weekly CMA - AUTOMATED... - 07/07/09 08:02 PM
Sellers always want to know what is going on in their area and what the "competition" is doing.  Taking some time to build these systems on the front end can save you countless hours on the back end with not having to return phone calls and emails and so forth.  I have been setting all of our sellers up on what we call a "Weekly Market Watch."
The Weekly Market Watch is an automated search set up through the MLS (stay tuned as I met with a company today that has an absolutely phenomenal tool) or Market Snapshot (through Top Producer) … (2 comments)
