I serve on the Education Committee for our MLS (Southwest Michigan Association of Realtors) and we are always looking for topics and presentations that will benefit our membership. When we come up with something that we feel is extremely useful we get low response.
We tried to offer a course/presentation at a cost of about $160.00 which is designed to teach you how to drive prospects to your website. This is not, I repeat: NOT a solicitation. I want your opinion why something like this would get a lackluster response? We advertised it, we demonstrated it's effectiveness, we made it convenient to attend and still had hardly any takers! Statistically, the majority of home buyers today find their new home online before calling a Realtor! Statistically, print media does not work to sell homes, so why are we spending thousands of dollars yearly on print and not on the internet? Is it a sign of the times? No one is working and cannot afford extras? Are people afraid of the internet and technology?
Your opinions please.
