The Positive Attitude for the Weary Soul group has long since been a group to go to when the soul got weary and where we could all go to read positive and inspirational posts to lift our spirits! I thought about this for a few days and after so many emails and phone calls I decided to do something positive for all my friends and the members of the group.
Let's fill that cup...instead of just looking at it half full!!!!
As you all know, all the groups have guidelines to follow and I purposely did not allow the Localism, market reports, stats and advertising in the group for the last year. I know that the Localism changes have been a shock to a lot of us and until they get it straight I wanted to do something for all of you that need a place for your Localism posts.
If you do not know what Localism is about click here... www.localism.com and it's where our Local Area tidbits about our neighborhoods, highlights of our area and such go. Before posting we make a choice to post to CONSUMER and click on the state and county of where our area posts are located.
In any event, when I sent out a GROUP email earlier there were a few who thought it was a personal email. It was NOT. It was a GROUP email reiterating that just because we are allowing Localism posts it does not mean to use the group as a dumping ground for market reports (meaning only numbers and stats), listings and self promotion.
What you also may enter into the group are local area neighborhood info with some homes/ condo info with a few market stats. Make it positively interesting! COPY / PASTE and plagiarized posts (even from your mls sites) have not been allowed in the past and will continue not to be.
As always, the main purpose of this group is to give positive feedback and inspirational/positive posts. Please read the Guidelines and Rules for Posting: Positive Group (Updated) as well as the Respecting Group Rules & Guidelines so you can better understand the group.
Also, my current PAWS moderators include myself, Brian Block -- Northern Virginia & D.C. Real Estate, Kathy McGraw ~ Calif Broker and Gary Woltal - REALTOR® Dallas Ft. Worth who will continue to help keep this a wonderful group with only positive inspirational posts. We're alive and full of spirit so let's do something with it!
I hope this clarifies the GROUP email I sent earlier for those that did not understand. Should you have questions please don't hesitate to ask any one of us or members who have been here a long time who know the ropes.....better than doing the assumptions. :) Have a great night!\
