Sometimes I want to be both!!! But then I do something stupid like write an entire blog and then delete it or send a mass email but forget to send it to the recipients as a bcc: (my agents love this by the way, especially those reading my emails on their phones). Well no one is perfect but I think we all strive to do our best.
Cary Sylvester with Keller Williams Realty International just sat down with WEB 2.0 TV and discussed how Keller Williams Realty is always striving to give us the best and most up-to-date technology. It's a great clip and you can access it by clicking here.
It seems to me that we are always getting these great informative emails from Keller Williams about new technology they are bringing to Keller Williams real estate agents and how we can log on to this webinar or that conference call for training on the latest and greatest. Now don't get me wrong...I love it, and am grateful that our agents get the best of the best ahead of the curve, but sometimes I get a little bogged down in what I should be using or what I should switch to, and don't even get me started on how fast we work around here to bring all this information to our agents at Capital Partners. So here's my question...
What's the best piece of technology you use from Keller Williams or your brokerage to help your business?
and
What would you like to see them add in the future...(oh by the way, a little birdie told me that someone in Austin reads this blog every once in awhile)?
;)

Interesting question. It's so interesting, that I may write a followup post about it. I've been with Keller Williams in Franklin tn for about 18 month, after many years with Century 21, so I have some camparisons.
1. Wolfnet - The IDX search that we use on our personal websites is vey customizable, and in my case, I build searches for neighborhood so that when I write a blog post about a neighborhood, I can include the search button.
2. VoicePad - A tool that allows buyers to call a local phone number and receive information on any real estate currently listed on their cell phone. Voicepad allert me immediately if it's one of my buyers, and sends an e-mail to the buyer to remind them of the property later.
3. Free Website - Ok you pay a little for it. It has most of the functions that you would want in a website right out of the box. Just make sure that you have it set up so that when people search for properties, they all come back to you. For us, it's the wolfnet product.
I haven't been able to make mine rank very high in the search engines, but I spend a lot of time on my other Point2Agent site.
Since I''m an experienced agent, a lot of the online tools that are very helpful to most agents really doesn't apply to me. But part of it is because I learn so much here on Activerain.
