An Open Letter to Nikish
Nikish,
This morning I received a very disturbing call from ActiveRain/Market Leader. I recently purchased the Local Expert for my community on RealEstate.com from Market Leader. I have not been happy with Market Leader in the past, but decided to give this a shot as I am so pleased with ActiveRain.
So far the launch of RealEstate.com has been delayed and it is somewhat unclear to me what is encompassed in what I purchased. I understand I will be able to link my own website. There a few other things that I will address after I hit my main point.
What I got this morning was call from the same person that sold me my Local Expert Badge offering to sell me that Local Listing Agent spot. Well hold on a second – If the local expert does not handle listings what is he? I was not sold a Buyers Position. I was sold a Local Expert Position. I viewed this as rather comprehensive.
What next? Will they sell a Buyers Expert? An Investor Expert? A First Time Buyers Expert? I can understand selling a separate Lender Spot. I don't compete with them.
When I e-mail in questions regarding what I have purchased there is a lack of response from Market Leader - but they seem ready to slice off a piece of my pie and sell it back to me.
Anyway I have purchased the Local Expert Spot. I expect to be the local expert for the real estate in that community. That would include listings.
