I Get My Kicks Off Google Searches?

March 13, 2011

I just helped get another new client's post in the top four for her target search terms. And as her Virtual Assistant, I've got to say it feels good. I'm not sure what it is about seeing that, but I guess we ALL want results in our businesses, no matter how big or small. Sometimes the smallest victories boost our moral, alleviate frustration, and prepare us for tomorrow. So I'm not ashamed to say that I get my kicks off Google searches. When I see a client feel empowered because of anything I've helped them with, I feel great. I'm ready for our next hurdle.

Sometimes, as a Real Estate Professional, you can feel like there are those "untouchable" agents who will always dominate you and "own" your farm or market no matter what. Believe me, I know that first hand.

One day, when I was an agent, I was out door knocking my farm (which was my own neighborhood). I was out in 95 degree heat, carrying my 300 fliers that I had earnestly cut and stapled on door hangers the night before. A car passed by me. On it were the car magnets of my "untouchables" (a team). When I got home that evening, I had two magnets on my refrigerator from them! (Thanks hubby).... Well lets just say, I felt microscopic at that moment.

At that time, I wasn't quite at the point in my career where I could justify spending on those things. And no matter how persistent I was in the traditional methods I was taught, I had the feeling I would continue to be the underdog. I think that's why I do get my kicks off seeing my clients get thier chance on search engines. It's all about taking the power back, leveling the playing field and allowing you to shine and get a shot at being on top... (And you save money on magnets)

Please contact me if you feel like your business would improve with the help of a Virtual Assistant. I've walked in your shoes (in 95 degree weather). Let's get your power back...

Hi Tara,

Great post!

It got my attention, so I read it.

It presents who you are and what you do.

I was with you, out in the heat and feeling the defeat.

Now I am on your side.

I also subscribed.

Look forward to more from you.

I love Google juice too Tara. Anytime you can move up from hard work is a great day and a tribute to your skill set. Nice job.
