fran rokicki sells ct: Beautiful Day in Connecticut, Today! - 10/28/10 10:05 AM
If you live here,in Connecticut, you know what I mean!  Beautiful sunny day.  75 degrees warm!  A little bit of wind, picked up and blew the fallen leaves about.  Driving with the windows open, you could pick up some leaves! I did:)
I showed homes, this morning.  At one of the homes, there was a man cleaning up the leaves.  They were still wet from yesterday's rain.  Makes the job easier, because they are less likely to fly away.  As the day went on, the wind did pick up and dry off some of those leaves.  It was a good day … (0 comments)

fran rokicki sells ct: This is a Good Start! - 01/08/10 03:20 AM
The year, 2010, is already giving me a good start for my business.  Many of us have struggled to get through the last few years and our payback is on its way.  It won't rebound like the last high marker, but, it will bounce along until we reach an acceptable level.  After all, someone is moving, every day.  New job, larger family, downsizing a family home, buying a second home for vacations, divorce, and people die. 
My good start is possible because I have a strong support system.  I have clients that refer their friends, co-workers and family to me.  They … (7 comments)

fran rokicki sells ct: Tech Tip That Doesn't Work - 08/18/09 05:03 AM
 
 
  At this lazy, summer time of year, do you find that all of the tips that you are trying to make work, just won't? Systems are busy, refusing to let you work?  Is it because you would rather be on a beach enjoying the warm, beautiful weather?  Be sure to take a day, every week, and treat yourself to a day of sunshine and rest.  You will come back, twice as inspired and energized for your business. 
It's a Good Life!
This one's for you Brad A:)  Thank you for always, helping me with my tech issues:)

fran rokicki sells ct: A Little Birdie Told Me... - 03/27/09 03:23 AM
Birthdays are a great celebration of our lives.  Sharing this good news makes everyone's day better, happier:)  Do you acknowledge birthdays of co-workers, clients, vendors and members of your team? 
It doesn't need to be a huge celebration.  As we grow older, we tend to keep the guest list small and intimate.  Yet, when someone turns 65, it is a celebration age!  So, is 100!  To live that long is truly a successful goal.
This week, here on the Rain, George Souto is celebrating his birthday.  So, for those of you who know him, be sure to share his happy day … (5 comments)

For those of you who are participating in the Buffini Blitz, I know that your numbers are growing everyday.  The activity that this new system has caused is amazing.  Brian and Joe are all over your statistics and looking for your comments and emails.
I cannot believe we are already into March!  Yet, because it snowed in New England today, yes, I guess it is still the winter season here.  March or not.  Since you are not able to go out and about easily today, if you live in this part of our country, well, do the activities to ready yourself … (5 comments)

I am asking for help with the group pages.  We used to be able to feature 5 favorites.  Now, they are all just scrambled together.  It makes them difficult to read and they no longer stand out.  I always used to feature a new member's post, just to make them feel more welcomed to Active Rain.  Anyone have ideas on how to get the site to offer a few featured posts?
On the groups, we all have things to say.  Membership, tech help, advise, tips, and then, some are just fun.  We always need fun!  Some days are very long for … (3 comments)

fran rokicki sells ct: How Many Days Til Spring? Find the Gift - 01/27/09 05:59 AM
Actually, from today, it is 29 days until spring.  Will it be 29 days until our spring real estate market?  Have you seen signs of this season coming at you, already?  I definitely see more activity than I have seen for months.  More decisions are being made and they are not taking as long to decide.  They have a pretty clear idea of what the are looking for.  Sounds like spring to me!  No bidding wars, yet.  We may not see them at all this year.  Sellers are having pricing wars, though.  The prices are falling, and the consideration is leaning towards a … (12 comments)

fran rokicki sells ct: What Can You Do, To Help the Real Estate Market? - 01/14/09 10:04 AM
Are you active in your community?  Visable to your clients and vendors.  Do you attend the local Realtor functions?  These are just some of steps that you can take to solidfy your business. 
Stay in consistent contact with your clients.  The newbees, the current and the former clients.  Stop by and say hello.  Weekends are best.  Have a print out of the local market conditions.  There is probably more that is selling than most of the people think. Have them hear the news from you, not, from the news media.  Let them know that the rates are still low.  Local banks are … (9 comments)

fran rokicki sells ct: Making a List! Here's Great News for You & Your Clients! - 01/10/09 06:43 AM
We are having a snowstorm today in Connecticut.  I ran out really early today.  They said it would probably start snowing around noon.  I live on a mountain top, so, getting back before it starts is always wise.  Even with my four wheel drive.  The folks who don't have snow tires or four wheel drive, block the road for everyone else.  Didn't want to chance it.
I had a list.  These days, I do not shop without one.  It keeps me on the budget, to the penny.  Grocery store was mobbed.  Did all of these people just run out of food?  … (3 comments)

fran rokicki sells ct: Have You Connected, Socially, Online? - 01/07/09 12:58 AM
Wow!  There are many networks up and running now.  Two years ago, when I was first invited to join active rain, it was the only social site for Realtors.  Now, I am LinkedIn, Twittered, Social Media, Plaxo, Facebook, Zillow, Trulia, and more.  Can you possibly keep up with all of them?  I say, yes.  You just need to pace yourself.  Some of these sites hear from me once or twice a week.  Obviously, if you are socializing too much, you won't be selling houses! 
Years ago, that was said to be true in the office.  Stop talking to other agents and … (7 comments)

On my profile page, if you click on Fran Rokicki Realty, LLC Blog, my company website comes up.  OMG!  What to do now?  Yes, it is nice for people to visit my website, but, what about my blog?  How do I fix this?  I don't remember setting it up that way, but, who knows? 
I appreciate that the active rain gods continue to improve and update this network.  However, what happens with these little bumps?  Our group blogs have changed and I really liked the format they had before.  I find them harder to read, do you? 
Anyways, if someone could … (16 comments)

fran rokicki sells ct: Surprise! A Bill? - 01/06/09 04:11 AM
Yes, we all have them and get them delivered right to our door.  Bills!  They are part of our day, our profession.  As a Broker/Owner, I am now entitled to more bills.  So, when your bills come in, do you categorize them?  Do you know if your agents are billing directly back to you?  With your persmission, that is absolutely, okay. 
Today, I was surprised by a bill.  It wasn't huge.  It was, though, a bill.  I do not advertise in the local paper or the state newspaper, usually.  The local paper, I haven't advertised in for over seven years now.  … (5 comments)

What a super way to start off the new year!  I appreciate everyone here on the rain, who is posting the helpful good tips and new systems information.  I could go into overload!  There is so much product offered out there, that it is reassuring to have our members sift through it for us.
The free stuff is very much appreciated, too!  The budgets have all been cut back, so that, we can continue to exist as a for profit business. 
Remember, with all of this technology available to us, the most important thing to do is face to face contact … (12 comments)
