Practicing Blogging and Marketing

By
Real Estate Agent with Exit Creative Reaty

We live in Heron Creek. We are building our business here. My wife wants to focus right here and I have visions of an empire stretching to Carpathia. In my mind I am King. My body is not so good.

2 Heart Attacks, COPD, Sleep Apnea, and now Parkinsons. Other than that, not bad. I run out of gas easily. I can be talking to a prospect and in mid-sentence go from 78 RPM to 33 RPMs. So I am listening to my wife for a change and marketing much better in our own community.

We have a newsletter that is quite good. It's a template and we modify it. We personalize it. We include research about pricing and price changes in our community. We talk about referrals invite our subscribers to request a free market analysis of their homes. 2 months ago we got a nice listing and were fortunate to get it under contract within 52 days.

We sent an e-mail out saying it was under contract. We use a template supplied through our company (for a fee of course) I'm starting to feel like a graphic artist. It's true I wear leg warmers and a beret! I made that up.

I'm dying to see if I can copy and paste it into my blog. By the way. We had a motivated seller, a great buyer and a beautiful home priced well. We just got out of the way and let it happen.

Very nice! Nice job to list and sell in 52 days.  You did a good job of cut and paste.  Just learning myself!  It's odd how the young people are so far ahead of curve and we're just getting there.  It goes to show you that you're never too old to learn!  I love trying new ways to market.  I am just starting my E-newsletter.  I'll let you know how it turns out!  Good luck!

Congrat on the home sale in 52 days - I love when that happens.  You made a great point when you got them priced right you can just price it and get out of the way.  Good luck

Hi Responders!
Thank you for all your kind comments. As for those of you that didn't take the time to read my heartfrlt thoughts............... I'm kidding. I always know I'm one listing away or 1 sale away from being on top of the world so I don't get down too much or toooftern. As I look back on my life, I have always done okk and I know I will continue that way, God has a plan for me and you also.
