My marketing guru has taught me how to make lists, and I find it a very useful thing to do. You can make lists to keep your prospective Clients at your web site or reading your other marketing materials:

  1. Top 5 reasons why YOU need to stage your home
  2. Top 10 reasons to use a Realtor
  3. Top 5 mistakes in trying to sell your home yourself
  4. Top 10 reasons to get a home inspection
  5. Top 10 reasons to use ME as your mortgage lender
  6. Top 10 mistakes home buyers make
  7. Top 10 ways to make your home green
  8. Top 10 things YOU can do before the home inspector arrives
  9. Top 10 causes of home insurance claims
  10. Top 10 reasons you should join ActiveRain

Try to keep your list to either 5 or 10. Those seem to be the magic numbers when it comes to people reading lists.

Russel, I also make lists for what I need to do the next day, and of course, a shopping list.

Hi Russel, I think "they" say people lose interest very easily, but 5 or ten items doesn't seem so long, and the peoples brains can tolerate a short list of 5 or 10 before they get bored.

Thank you for the list idea Russel. I'm going to start on that and link them to me blog and also make them part of my listing presentation (whichever will apply).

I had a typewriter just like that.  It was my great uncles and got passed on to me when I was a teenager.  When I moved six years ago, I sold it at a yard sale.  Seeing your picture brings back pleasant memories!

Russel...I too am a list maker.  It seems if I don't have a to do list, something always gets forgotten.  Unfortunately, mine exceeds 10 items most of the time!

Hey, Barbara - I love antique stuff. I still have my first video game for the television, Pong. I bought it in 1977 and I was the envy of just about everyone in College Station, Texas. Word spreads fast among college students when you have the only doohickey in town.

Hey, Rebecca - Although I make shopping lists, my husband usually forgets to bring it with us. LOL

Hey, Liz Bolton - I think lists help people focus since they all have such short attention spans.

Hey, Liz Flint - It's amazing that people get bored so easily.

Hey, Sally - Just like my husband who wants me to do everything for him. LOL

Hey, Wanda - I bet your prospective Clients will find them useful.

Hey, Sharon - My typewriter is one of the few items that I have that brings back memories of my granddad.

Hey, Carra - When your list starts exceeding 10 items regularly, you just need to make a new list. I have a daily list, as well as weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, and annually.
