I recently attended a free seminar at our local association outlining the e-Pro course and designation. I can't remember seeing a property manager with the designation; however, never one to turn down extra letters after my name * CPM * GRI * and seeing the need to "buy some vowels", I went to the seminar and really enjoyed the information and signed up for the course.
Some fellow agent/attendees at the seminar asked me WHY I would want to blog? At first, I thought it was because I don't sell or list real estate for sale. Then I realized they posed the question because I was a LOWLY property manager so WHY would I want to blog or use social media?
As the seminar when on, I found that not only was I one of the few who actually has a blog... www.propertymanagementmaven.com ....I was the only one who had a blog who actually BLOGS frequently, has their blog on their website, and who promotes their blog.
When I got back to my office, I checked with our agent information in our MLS and association roster and found that there was no space or blank to put in agents' blogs.....2 slots for fax numbers * home and office * however, no space for agents to put in their blog address.
I wrote our association and requested that they install that space/blank so that agents, when they are updating their information, might consider creating and using a blog!
