What I Learned This Week At ActiveRain-April 17 to April 23, 2016.

 

I learn something new every day at ActiveRain!  With this series, I try to highlight one post per day that gave me that “lightbulb” moment.  It could be something techie, something about Real Estate, about a place or person!  Or it could be a post that made me sit up and take notice!

 


patricia feagerApril 17: Patricia Feager Are Your Clients Tracking Your Whereabouts?

Patricia's story was a learning experience for many of us. Read and learn.

 

debb janesDebb Janes EcoBroker and Bernie Stea JD Sundays are Family Day at Our Multi-gen Home in Camas.

If you grew up as I did with family over every Sunday and during the week, you'll love following Debb on her journey in Multi-gen living.

 

 

jon zolskyApril 18: Jon Zolsky Real Estate. What Is It?

For a non-agent such as myself, I've always had a fine appreciation of how hard agents work. This was an eye-opener for me as to how much goes on before a client even sets foot on a property.

 

melissa ZavalaApril 19: Melissa Zavala How to Turn Your Closings Into Referral Clients.

You work so hard to get a new client, why stop once they've closed?!

 

 

scott godzykApril 20: Scott Godzyk What TOOL should every agent bring to a REAL ESTATE Showing?

Go ahead and guess, then read Scott's post to see if you were right!

 

 

lou ludwigApril 21: Lou Ludwig Leave the Past ...Behind You.

Learning from the past is always a good thing. Remembering it is as well. But to dwell in the past will get you nowhere.

 

 

Jeanne gregoryApril 22: Jeanne Gregory Maybe the Millennials Are On to Something

Times to change and getting the proverbial gold watch for longevity at a company may be a thing of the past.

 

rain silverhawkApril 23: Rain Silverhawk The world may owe you nothing, but you owe yourself everything.

The next time you feel that chip sitting on your shoulder, read Rain's post. Not a bad thing to give to the kids either.

 

chuck willmanChuck Willman Life is a Rough Draft-Scattered Thoughts on Losing a Loved One.

Chuck's post was featured but in case you missed it, I hope you'll head to his post. It comes from the heart and you can't ask for much more when you're reading a post.

 

 

 

 

 

Thank you for letting me do what I love to do each day... learn something new!
