It's a big web

I just moved from Texas to South Carolina last month and am THRILLED with my new KW market center. There are so many technical training classes.

They showed me how to "blog" and to begin to maneuver AR as well as many other ways/places to post listings. Today I took a class on Google AdWords.

I think that for those of us over the age of...lets say 35? There is so much about the web that I have never even considered much less learned about. Much of it seems daunting to me but with the help of my peers and the online community hopefully I will be sharing things I know soon instead of commenting on how much I have to learn!

Anna, welcome and you are right it's tough for those of us in that over the age of...lets say 35, to keep up in the world of cyber. You will do great and I hope you enjoy SC. Wish you would have made a stop in Georgia, I could use a few more agents. Best of Luck and happy selling.

expand your networking by being on local social networking site. Community grapevines will have 1500 sites up next year. They can bring you more power than the MLS, with virtual tours, unlimited video space, unlimited photo space, and you can place up to 8 photo's with your listing.

These sites are the best of facebook, youtube, myspace, and craigslist but gear for local communities and local economies.

Sounds awesome and, you know what, even though it's available, you would think that EVERYONE would take advantage of the opportunity. I applaud you for going out there and becoming educated to keep up with the technology-savvy oriented times.

Thank you!

Welcome! I did the transition a few years back from Washington DC to Charlotte and after some adjustment, I love it.

Get involved with Internet Lead Generation on KWU. It's a fantastic class that covers all that sort of data. Also, plan to come to family reunion. KW is highlighting my blog and my resulting success. It's a great time had by all!

See you at the next regional event!

Sounds like you have some wonderful educational opportunities. I wish I could find something like what you described that was available here. I am an old dog determined to learn some new tricks! Woof!

Konnie,

Keller Williams has all sorts of training classes both online and at our various market centers(offices). The company was founded by agents for agents and we trade information and sales strategies because we all share profits. I took the Google Ad Words class locally at the office. If you have not considered KW you should take a look. They "grow" mega agents.

Still, even with all the training I still find much of the interenet marketing a bit daunting but am determined to spend time on it each day til I get up to speed.

Thanks for all the responses!
