They all see the light at some point, don’t they?  Agents who do not use any form of social media for marketing will, sooner or later, realize that they must pay attention to this segment of marketing. 

It’s only been two years of blogging for me, and I feel like I need to work more consistently to make up for lost time.  My firm is offering what we’re calling a “RE/MAX Round Table” and it’s a call to action for agents to become familiar with social media.  It’s time for all of the agents in our firm to get on board and realize that without an Internet presence, their business will slowly disappear.    

We’ll be fielding questions about social media; I have screen shots that will show them the importance and the powerful results of blogging; and there will be three bloggers with very different experience levels to answer questions.  If they don't see the light, they'll certainly feel the heat after not seeing their names on the screen shots!!!!

Bill Gassett, is the experienced blogger; I’m an intermediate blogger; and Carol Ann Palmieri is a novice blogger.  We each have our different styles and methods of blogging and using social media, and we each have very good results from what we do.  We are all ActiveRain Rainmakers.

This session will be taking place next Wednesday, and we have 15 responses at this time.  There are 95 agents in our firm.  I fully expect that we’ll have a great turnout.  This is a session that should and will be provided periodically with more panel members added as more agents become bloggers.  It’s a win-win for everyone.

Barbara-Love the quote, I guess I'm a bit spoiled hanging around with people on AR that get it and practice using SM as a tool, good luck with your presentation.

Barbara great to see you on that panel. You guys are really going to bless some agents. Don’t forget to “invite” them all to AR. Who knows, there could be a million points blogger “to be”  in the group.

Hi Barbara -

Awesome idea having a round table meeting on social media!   Best of luck and I look forward to hearing how it goes.  We all must take the social media  plunge sooner or later ... sooner is better!  I sure wish Active Rain would make a trip to the Albuquerque area.  You better believe I'd be in that class pronto!

Best regards from the Q

David.....I hope there are many who see the importance and start using the various sites especially ActiveRain....

John....thanks....you should have an ActiveRain "meet up" with other rainers....we had one here and it was a good time to actually meet the members face to face....

I'm sure everyone who attends will learn a lot from the presenters.  Whether they decide to actually implement what they learn is an entirely different question.

Cindy.....I agree....I think many will want to but also feel insecure....others will want to and it will fizzle quickly.....I'm hoping a few actually jump on board.

Sounds like a great forum......we have a larger office but I can't get any of the agents to see the importance of Social Media and specifically blogging!  had one last year but he just stopped...and he was getting business!   I won't even pretend to understand!

Just like everything else, some people wait until they are absolutely convinced before they start a new thing. .I'm sure after your class, everyone will be a blogger!

Sure wish I could attend, but then, I suppose the responses you have are folks who already have some interest and are working at it.  The rest of the gang likely just doesn't see the importance.
