Listening to Social Media Webinar

I've been playing on facebook, twitter, Activerain, and Linked In for about a year.

I really have little clue about what the impact of all this.

I'm generally open and honest ... sharing what's happening in my life.

I haven't really tried to find buyers or sellers using Social Media ... I basically have just opened accounts and shared what I'm upto.

I enjoy connecting with old friends ... and learning what they are upto.

I can contribute a couple of deals this year to Social Media.

Currently I'm listening to a webinar by Ross Hair.

I continue to be underwhelmed by the opportunities of Social Media.

I'll continue to keep informed on Social Media ... and while I don't need to be a leader in this ... I don't want to be left behind.

Byron I've overwhelmed by the social media craze too. I've got twitter, facebook, linkedin, you name it I've got. I'm just now getting a clue on how to use it better. Good luck!

Thanks Bryon...I'm with you as far as using all the social media to communicate with the world. But I have not received any business from it yet either. I do believe it will come though...hopefully sooner rather than later.

After listening to this webinar I considered paying the $500 fee to join the 6 training sessions.

However ... after a nights sleep ... I think I'll just continue prodding along ... updating my "STATUSES" whenever I think of it ... or have time ... or think that someone might care that:

-I'm hanging the Christmas lights;

-Sharing recent local MLS data.

-At my childrens music recital.

-A great new listing

My Social Marketing Media Strategy:

1. Add friends when I have time ... or feel like it.

2. Don't try to sell or build REAL relationships on Social networks.

3. Build my close relationships outside of the social networks.
