I help brokers build businesses they love.

Jovani: No, I capture the html for each chart and out it into a little table I created in google docs. This way the chart automatically updates every week. All I have to do is write an intro --- I'm trying to get into the habit of doing this each month for each of my areas.

 

Carla: Pretty charts, huh?
