Ask An Ambassador: Watch For Suckers
 
"We've ALWAYS done it this way!"
"It's not how much you make, but how much you keep."
 
Most of us have certain ways of doing things.  The tried and true, methods that have worked for us for years, so we keep doing them.
But sometimes we need to reevaluate.
For the last decade we've paid for a certain program with R.com that allowed us to enhance our listings.  Add extra pictures, customizing the marketing remarks, etc.  When we started it made sense and it was a good listing tool. 
Would you rather have 6 photos of your home for sale or 25? 
And as part of that program buyer leads on our listings would (sometimes) be routed directly to us.
But each year the price climbed and the value declined.  Eventually EVERY listing was getting dozens of photos pulled in, with or without that enhancement service.  And those "leads"?  Most wouldn't respond even if you tried to reach them within moments of the contact form in our inbox.
The return on investment just wasn't there.
So when this year's renewal notice arrived, I canceled.  Take a look at your annual expenses as you're doing your taxes and you might find other suckers.  Monthly charges that are no longer ... more
