Today as I am reading my daily dose of real estate news and things like that I came across a post that kind of ticked me off. Some old lady broker from the east cost who insists that agents cannot become professionals at anything else. In fact her blog post cited people who had been in real estate and how dare they consider themselves experts at things like motivation, SEO, Marketing, and copy law.
Well here is my take on that, being a 10+ year pro-agent who has decided to take a pass on the current situation that bankers, the gov, and real estate professionals have gotten us into, I have focused on SEO as a career. I have been doing organic SEO for the better part of 15 years, basically since the beginning. I have been certified and have several happy clients to stand for. That is not my issue with the post.
What is wrong with this post, coming from a so-called pro. She should realize that inside every SUCCESS a realtor has in this business there is some side talent or skill that the professional either learns or has honed along the way. In my 10+ years I must admit I have mastered the art of quite a few local trades, marketing, SEO, negotiations, public speaking, fund raising, and have become a professional writer, photographer, map reader, and others. So many people don't know or understand what it takes to be successul in real estate, and positioning with such crap really ticks me off coming from a broker.
In the end there will be those who have been honest, respectful, and right...and those who wished they were.
