I guess I would say...relevant and informative content is king. 

Michael, you are so right about having content and good information. Enjoyed speaking with you today.

Mmmmm.  Not much.

Margaret, This sounds like fun!! I would tell everyone to visit brokerbryant.com :)

BB, now why would all these Maryland agents want to visit your post....oh I know...because you are sooooo good looking!

This sounds like a GREAT presentation, and one that many people will benefit from.  Way to go!

Thanks Margaret!  Your comments are appreciated.

Subject: WCR Meeting on 3/13

Hi Margaret,
I wanted to send you a reminder email regarding this week's WCR meeting. For the heck of it, I googled your name and WOW, your name is everywhere!! I had never read a blog until looking at yours, and of course you had blogged that you were speaking at our meeting!
I know you will have a lot of exciting information to share with the group. Many members have heard you speak and are looking forward to this meeting.
As a reminder, the Affiliate Fair runs from 11-12. You are scheduled for 30-45 min following lunch. Somehow I suspect you could talk informatively to us for the entire meeting time!
Thanks again for agreeing to speak to the group.
Regards, Sue Markuson

I spoke with Sue and invited her to Active Rain.

I think that is great that you get an opportunity to share with others about blogging! Let us know how it goes.

With the experience and excitement you have, you won't have a problem at all finding something to fill that time. You will do great.

Naomi, I will let you know after Thursday. I am grateful for the opportunity.

Latonia, Thanks for your kind comments.

Darn!  Wish I were in your area!  This is alot of fun though!  I'm enjoying it.

Carmen, Thanks for stopping by.

Margaret,

Is this a meeting I would be able to attend? Or is it for REAs only?

Would love to have you at the meeting. Call me 410-530-2400

If I got in front of a group to talk about Blogging, there'd be no need for coffee, and they couldn't shut me up!! LOL!~  You know me Margaret, I can name 10 reasons to Blog right now.....but I won't!  Hahahaha  You'll do a great job and represent us and yourself well, I just know it!  Bring down the house, and "Make Their Day!" :-)

BTW - since you are definitely technically non-challenged, do you have a power point to make your power points?  I'd love to see that in your repertoire...   :-) 

Good luck with your presentation Margaret! I would tell them how it can significantly increase an agents business if done well :)

Brad, Wonderful talking with you yesterday. I love what you did with your latest post!!  Making A Point - The Power Point Way!

Bill, Thanks for your kind words which I will share with the group.

Good luck Margaret.  I'm sure you will do a wonderful job representing us all!

Margaret - I got so excited, there were a couple little bugs, but I corrected them this morning.  Just got toooo excited after talking to you yesterday.  Have a great presentation today, they are lucky to have you as their guest! :-)

Thanks David and Kristin.  I am on my way to the Country Club to answer this question. "What's a Blog Anyway?"

Brad, Everyone, go read  Brad's  post!  Making A Point - The Power Point Way!  This is the presentation I am doing in about an hour.

Margaret.  I just looked at the Power Point presentation on Brad's blog. 

Very nice. 

Thanks Lenn for stopping by.

Glad to hear your presentation was a success....it's only because you're a success!  Thanks for the plug about my post!  It's 100% dedicated to you!!  Thanks again Margaret, you're a class act!  :-)

 Brad, We make a pretty good team! I told the group about your power point post. One of the agents that signed up for the meeting and could not come was delighted to know the presentation is on line.

It's already been viewed over 38 times directly from the "Host" where I placed it.  That doesn't count all the Active Rain views within the post.  We do make a good team! :-)

Great information, and congrats on the presentation. 

Brad, There are now, 111 comments on your AR  featured post!  Making A Point - The Power Point Way!  

David, Thanks for stopping by!

Great information. I am just going to join the WCR chapter in California. They just launched their blog this week. I am up against lectures from my mother manager that you need to get to the basics, call clients, get them in your car, nothing beats the face to face...ok Help!!! I do limit my blogging and call all my leads, I just told my mother you have to take a risk on something new..any advice!!

I am amazed at how you find the time for all you do!! Acutally, I have my last child at home and he is 12 so I have slowed my pace and I am just getting new treatment for fibromyalgia...So I do what I can and I use to do to much.. 

Mary, Enjoyed speaking with you today. Your mother is right, you need to do the basics and get face to face.     But blogging can help you get your name out there. Blogging can make the phone ring. Blogging can help bring buyers, sellers and agents from outside your area.

Take care of yourself and enjoy what you are doing

Margaret and Brad, marvelous post. Great idea adding a power point to a blog. That will be a project I would love to master.

Dionne, This was a real team project. Brad will be showing us how to master this technology.
