This month’s ActiveRain challenge is a simple one for most of us…except for the youngest among us. You know, the one’s who have always had a remote control, cell phone and the Internet..
Which Mobile Device or Application Allows You to Remain on the Go?
Which one device improves my productivity, time management and client communication and frees me from the tether of “the office?”
To me the answer is not one single device but the synergistic effect of all taken together. You see it is not one of these but the ability to use any or all together that allows us to leave the office in the morning and be out all day yet handle anything that may arise back at “the office.”
What are these miracle tools?
Let’s see…
-
Smart phone – Can you imagine if you had to have someone take messages at the office for you? Appointment changes, canceled showings, missed inquiries from prospective clients, running late messages and the like?
-
Email – Quick, more efficient than pen and paper. Instant response.
-
Laptop/Notebook – Well this is now a thing of the past for me since the advent of the…Ipad
-
Electronic signature applications – Saving paper, saving time….enough said!
- GPS/Navigation Systems - No stopping for directions and mapping out showing routes.
I guess when taken together all the above things have one thing in common that has allowed the flexibility most of us enjoy in the day to day real estate business world....
Wireless networks.
Yes, that is the tool that allows the mobility we must have every day or else!
As for the title reference to listings in a binder...I really don't remember those days but I have read comments and posts here through the years that told of those days. Were those the good old days of real estate?
