Marketing Real Estate using Social Networking (web 2.0)

Blogged on 2/4/2009 by McGuire Real Estate

I remember in the early 90’s when cell phones were just becoming popular, and I was speaking to a group of agents on how this new technology was going to change their lives. They all thought I was crazy.

Moreover, I was teaching agents how to be more productive using a computer in their business. I would say if you can’t afford the computer go out and buy a genuine nylon computer case and stick your MLS book in there so you look automated.

Flash to 2009 and a good percentage of agents are strapped to their smart phones and laptops working everywhere and anywhere. We’ve gone from marketing locally to marketing globally using the web. And now a new era is emerging: social networking. Sites like Facebook, ActiveRain, Twitter, LinkedIn are changing how we market properties and lead generate for new business.

Here is a post that I really liked and can at least educate you on how to get started.
