Are you the ghost writer or the owner of your post on AR? Fess up! Just curious to know! I know many brokers and REALTORS(r) as myself are very busy. However, I do NOT use a ghost writer to post for me on AR. I might not write until late in the evening ( and I find this relaxing to a point), and I do not use an assistant to write my opinions on AR.

That being said, I would rather not post an opinion if I am busy rather than have an assistant post a comment that might go out to google that will embarrass me forever. See my point?

Blogs should be something from the heart or of quality in content or both, not sure how you should interpret that, however...I guess I mean of personal importance.

What do you think? Do you use an assistant to blog for you? (I'm guessing I will not have many responses b/c U (Mr./Mrs. Member) aren't here??? :-0

Assistants, do you BLOG for your Broker, Real Estate agent...HEY, WE'RE NOT COPS, JUST LOOKING FOR INFORMATION.

THANKS FOR BEING HONEST!!!

Karen,

Blogs can be many-faceted.

Who cares if a market report or neighborhood profile is done by the agent or an assistant? It is mostly just data anyway.

But, I like to see people write in their own "voice" when doing opinion pieces, or personal pieces.

I agree with Mike on the data ...but if its personal...its the real deal.

Mike,

I love personal opinions. I love to learn from other's experience.

Liz,

That's fine, however, do you have personal experience to share that would help others improve their business?

Trey,

As always, love to hear your responses. Yes, you are so Right ON! Personal experiences to share are the REAL DEAL HERE! Thankx!

Karen - I do my own posts; always have and always will. However, having said that, for people who have their assistants post for them, as far as I am concerned, they are completely missing out on one of the best things that AR has to offer. Their loss, my gain. JMHO

Donne,

Love your opinion and agree with you. So many people who have their assistants post for them miss out on the purpose here...Live and learn! Thanks!
