One Simple "Tweet" on Twitter Got Me A Cover Story

Follow Me On Twitter

While doing some research on a property for an investor client, I ran across some interesting statistics for the neighborhood over the past few years. Really interesting statistics that ran contrary to grain of the market in general for Tucson real estate.

Excited to share this, I "Tweeted" my initial findings, which caught the eye of Joe Pangburn, a reporter for Inside Tucson Business, a local weekly journal in the area...who then tweeted me back to see if we could get together.

Long story short, I did more research, which Joe thought noteworthy...and so did his editor.  You can read about it in this week's issue - the article made the cover story.  Thanks Joe!

Here's the online version:  U of A real estate is where to be for value-holding homes in Tucson

Still think Twitter is a waste?

A good way to get your name out there with this...and all from a tweet. I need to pick twitter back up more. I use it just not that much.
