Social media marketing in just seven days

Are you a real estate dinosaur?

As this post is being published I am in the final week of my vacation.  I sure hope that I am having a good time! I hope that you are having a good time too, but how about taking a few minutes to check and see if you are exhibiting dinosaur behavior or not!  Here…

How to find new clients

Blog? Facebook? LinkedIn? Twitter? Say what?

This week’s post is not about technology. or about the latest and cool web site, or even about how to do something. Instead I want to toss out a thought that I have then ask you some questions in return. This blog reaches over 600 readers via RSS feed, quite a few more subscribe via…

What ARE they saying about YOU?

On September 5th, I wrote about Nutshell Mail which aggregates everything social into an email.
