A SHORT EXCERPT FROM MY CHAPTER

I wrote a chapter entitled "Toward 100% Online Lead Generation"  Here's a brief excerpt to whet your appetite:

    "Today's real estate consumer wants the same information as they've always wanted in the past.  They want to
know what's for sale, prices, market trends, good neighborhoods, and the all important "What's in it for Me if I
Work with You?"  The difference is that today's consumer wants this information fast.  They don't want fancy presentations but bare-bone facts and figures, and they want to be kept in the loop and feel like they are a part
of the process.  The client today wants to work with the agent in partnership rather than having the agent work
for them.  As more and more agents start establishing their online presence, the smart ones are shifting their
business toward achieving 100% online lead generation"

and put the power of technology to work in your real estate business today.

p.s.  I am very proud to have been involved with this project wtih a terrific group of contributors and hope that you will find this book useful in your business.  Please feel free to contact me with any questions and I'd love to hear your comments about the book after you've read it.

It appears that AR is far more versatile and stronger than meets the eye. First the book and then the movie? AR is a collaboration of 146,830 of the more interesting real estate professionals in the world. Which is kind of interesting when I consider that there are over 110,000 real estate agents in my state alone. Anything done by this group has to be worth the money, not to mention the continuation of the efforts.

Hey, Brian!  Working with you and the other authors on this book is one of my proudest accomplishments.  I truly hope we can help a number of good agents stay in the business and embrace the changing environment rather than give up.

Wow...awesome! Just in time for some on-the-plane reading when I head to Montana....

NO, not a vacation. Will be at Mom's with my laptop on the dining room table. Drove her nuts last time as I guess it will again this time....and then, I did not have Active Rain!
