I remember sitting in a Joe Stumpf, By Referral Only, seminar a number of years ago (I was selling real estate then), when Erick Blackwelder told how the BRO concept became wildly successful for him when he "got stupid." Erick was taking Joe's marketing ideas and tweaking them to make them more about 'him' with lackluster results. When Erick finally "got stupid" and just did what Joe told him to do, without the tweaking, the BRO system start to work...and work FABULOUSLY!

This week while attending online trainings with Mary McKnight of RssPieces concerning building your business through social networking, SEO and blog writing, I decided to 'get stupid.' I took copious notes and am in the process of doing everyhting Mary told me to do to generate business with my husband's (Dave Macklin) new blog, AllVirginiaBeachRealEstate.com. I'm not going to second guess anything, but just do it! The results aren't in yet, but I have a feeling they will be stellar!!

If you are one of my clients (I am a real estate virtual Assistant) and reading this, I'll be in touch with you about 'getting stupid' with your Blog.
