A couple of years ago, I heard about a smart agent in Vancouver, Washington who had created the page "365 Things To Do In Vancouver, WA"...
The agent leveraged the power of Facebook, and created a page dedicated to the promotion of his hometown, Vancouver, Washington. At last count, his page had 15,960 fans...
After reading Kathy Schowe's featured post yesterday, "Best Practices 1: Create a 365 Things to do in Your Town Page on Facebook", I knew I had to make one.
Kathy's Facebook page, "365 Things to do in the Palm Springs Area", already has over 2100 fans, and is adding 20-30 new followers each week.
Inspired by Kathy, I created the Facebook page, "365 Things to Do in Naperville, Illinois".
It will be much easier to market a beautiful city like Naperville...

Then it is to market Ken Tracy Real Estate...

The Naperville page currently has 5 fans, but I am very optimistic. Just having the page should cause me to write more hyper-local posts, driving local readers to my website and blog. I think it should be fun, too.
Have you started a Facebook page for your hometown yet?
Maybe today is your day to get inspired...

I like it!!!!! I think I will also try it.
Hi Karen. I hope you do. I think it will be a fun and productive project for us both!

Good luck with the venture, it'll keep you on your toes and you will be the go to Naperville person. Want to know another great Facebook achievement? Doug Newby writes about Arcitecturally Significant Homes in Dallas, his following is now over 439000 followers. Now there's a challange.
Hi Corrine and John. Thanks for stopping in!
That is a lot of followers. I am hoping to grow over time...
Naperville is beautiful, isn't it John?
Thanks again,
Ken
Keep up the good work Ken. I recently read that same post and decided to create the page 365 things to do in the Portsmouth NH area. I currently have only 3 likes, but I too am optimistic!
Hi Bill. Way to go! It is always fun having something new to market...
Keep up the great work!

Oh my, Ken. This sounds like a great idea, but where do you find the time? Wait, I think I know the answer. One Day at a Time. Here in Erie, PA there really are a lot of things to do. As agents we want to be the 'go to person for real estate' for the general public and what better way to do just that?
I will follow link to your page shortly.
Hey Mary. Thanks! I don't know where I find the time.:)
Thanks for following the page!

It's a great idea. I have a 365 Things To Do In Jackson Hole, WY theme I use here on AR. I need 363 more things...
Hi Tim. So far my page is doing great. I don't actually count out the number of things, I am just posting anything fun to do...
Thanks for stopping in!

Ken, As our weather turns colder, I tend to work on new things on the internet. I will be implementing this good idea soon. Thank you for sharing!
Ken!
This is so awesome! I can't wait to build my page. I was so excited about the idea that I've alreay reserved the name for League City, TX!
Cheers!
Ken, what a tremendous idea...thanks for sharing and I'll check out your site now!
Hi Fran, Brian, and Virginia. Thanks for reading!
I am really enjoying the page. It has been about two weeks, I have 34 fans, and I am out and about w/ my camera...
These activities will lead to business...
Thanks again!
