Last week I taught a beginning blog class to local agents.Top Hat
It was held at a local title company's conference room.
Any and all were invited to attend.
My one request is that we collect an entry fee as a donation to local charity.
The charity?  I leave it up to the host. 

In this case it was once again for the Contra Costa Association of Realtors Scholarship Fund.

The room holds a max of 30 people so we had them RSVP to my office so that we didn't over book.

The day came, the class went great, and quite a few agents went away knowing what a blog was, why they wanted to blog, and most importantly how to blog.
We did have some no shows, and a few people called to say they wouldn't be able to make it. 
I'm very ok with that.  It is after all just a blog class, it's not a dinner party at the White House.

But I want to give a special shout out to Ken Sorenson of Zip Realty.

  • No, Ken wasn't the superstar pupil.
  • No, Ken isn't my Sister's, Husband's, Cousin's Best Friend.
  • No, Ken isn't someone who has referred a multi million dollar client to me.

In fact Ken and I had never talked, we've never met, and he couldn't make it to the class.

But when I opened up my mail today and found a letter from Ken apologizing for not attending AND a check for $10 Donation to the CCAR Scholarship Fund for a class he didn't make, Ken Sorenson has earned my deepest respect as a human being.

So Ken Sorenson, or anyone like Ken Sorenson, I tip my hat to you, Sir!
If there is anything I can ever do for you - just ask!

Ken sounds like a stand-up guy.

Wow , should be more people like Ken in the world!  Can't wait to come to your next class Mike!  Although now I'm on a roll, there's still more and more I should probably learn.

Catherine - I would love to have you come - you have so little to learn.  Maybe jump in and give your perspective?  That would be great!

The funny thing about Ken - He probably will never see this post!  But I do wish there were more like him!
