Ann Arbor Area Board of Realtors hosts Lola Audu for Blogging Con Ed

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Missy Caulk TEAM

Lola Audu teaching in Ann Arbor on bloggingToday, the Ann Arbor Area Board of Realtors, sponsored Lola Audu teaching a Continuing Education Class on Blogging. This class is approved by the State of Michigan for 4 hours on Con Ed.

It was a great class, Lola was her usual gracious, fun and informed speaker. There were about 26 of us there. I do believe folks finally "get it" that they must blog in order to not be left behind in growing their business.

Of course I was tweeting that I was there. Some people tweeted, "like you really need it", or "you could be teaching the class."

Actually No, I learned a ton. We should never feel we know it all. I sure know I learn things new all the time.I learned today.

The class was divided into two sections: 1) Blogging Basics for Real Estate Professionals 2) Ethics of Blogging for Real Estate Professionals.

To quote one of Lola's points:

Success in On-Line Marketing is an All Inclusive Process

  • It's about having the tools
  • It's about knowing how to use them
  • I'ts about choosing what works
  • it's aobut understanding why
  • It's about time and consistency
  • It's about effectively responding

Missy Caulk and Lola AuduWe are blessed to have this class in Michigan and I know everyone there felt the same way.

Thanks Lola !!

Missy, I'm sure that Lola was a great teacher.  You've given me an idea -- I'm already slated to teach a blogging class at least 3 times this year to our agents -- maybe I should see about getting it approved for CE.

Missy, I would have loved being there as well.  I'd say come to New York and teach a class together...wow, it would be a sell out!

What a wonderful experience to spend time with Lola!  I have really come to admire her writings, and to meet her in person would be such a treat!

Missy...

I am a bit envious that you know Lola personally. She's one of the folks I so wish I could meet. But, it's so cold in Michigan. I think my thin blood would freeze as soon as I stepped off that plane.

Oh My...I can't be envious...It's one of the seven deadlies. Taking it back and I'll be on my way :)

TLW...ROAR!

Hi Missy,

Now how cool is that. You and Lola. She definitely sounds (from post and comment content)  like she could teach this stuff. I had wondered if I could. I had given thought to hosting a series of seminars at night school for blogging and have not made the decision thus far. Maybe Lola would share her presentation outline?

Congrats and it was great to see you both in one photo.

Missy, it was so good to see you again today!  It's amazing to think of the difference that blogging has made in both our lives isn't it?  The class today was really fun & having you there was great because you shared your experiences too.  The Ann Arbor Area Board of Realtors is to be commended for providing this sort of educational offering to their members.

That's wonderful!   I know you enjoyed it as well as everyone else there.  She really takes Con-Ed to a new level and there isn't a moment of boredom or "Gee, haven't we heard all of this already?"   She is truly an innovator when it comes to teaching about Blogging and the responsibilities that go along with it.

Sounds like  a great class. Our state won't approve blogging for CE credits. They don't perceive the value to the public. Enjoy your KW convention.
