Well if you are following these "Chronicles" then you must be wondering where the next update is.  Well, Life happens.

(Note: Post is in Hoschton, GA today since I will be working from home today)

4:00 AM - Up with baby.  

Around 5 AM - Done, tag the wife (the baby won't sleep without Mommy apparently), a few minutes of sleep needed....

after a few minutes

8:00 AM - Start of my day, rushing around to get started.

8:54 AM - Car with mechanic, 71 New E-mails, Had someone leave me a voice mail message last night asking why I called, my website was so good, I should never have to call her....gotta love the internet.  Up to 28 followers on Twitter.

9:21 AM -Seriously considering the change of all my links to BUDURLs to track usage, need to read up on the SEO of the link though. Goals for the day is:

  • 50 Calls
  • Get mailing out to SOI
  • Get in-house listing book finished for client
  • Thank You cards sent out to "appointmented" people
  • Cancel or renegotiate vendor contracts

10:32 AM - Email is cleared out, wrote a long blog post entitled, "What I believe" then realized it might offend everyone and even be seen as unprofessional.... we'll see.  Follow up on a great project I'm working on.  One SOI call, and a brief Pop-by was done - My mechanic is in my SOI and forgot to mention that!

On with the calls!

11:00 AM - Calls, right?  Talked to loan officer may have a great "connection" for me.  Talked with a buyer who is back in the market.

11:30 AM - Buyer appointment scheduled for today.  Messes up my plans, but I'm happy to have it. 

12:21  -  Getting ready for buyer appointment, trying to squeeze in a few phone calls from my list of calls to do.

1:00 PM - Buyer needs to be pre-qualled at least (I thought I had already "walked them through the steps" but I hadn't).  They decide to wait, considering all of the homes would require them to close this year.

1:30 PM - Back to phone calls - Talked to one person for 30 Minutes.  Something really big for me coming up, potentially.

2:00 PM Back to phones - Talking with 2 buyers that will be looking next week. 

3:00 PM OK, really, back to phones - 10 Calls

3:45 PM Call from a usability contractor for MyDealBook.com.  He wonders why I'm not clicking on things I need to click on.  This was a time sink, but I do enjoy these types of conversations.  So technically it was goofing off, but I might have made a connection for someone else and I might have helped him, so it was worth it.

4:30 PM Gotta finish up my calls.  All my interenet leads are called and a few more follow ups.

5:35 PM going over to finish up the calls.

Done.

I will sound like a technological Luddite, but wat is SOI?  Search on Internet? 

I Googled it and got Silicon on Insulator (SOI), Service Oriented Infrastructure (SOI), School of Infantry (SOI), etc. :)
