Back in November 2011 I lambasted zipLogix (Maker of zipForms6) and Docusign for not having a solution for iPads that seamlessly integrated the two services. (You can read it here if you wish: https://realtytechbytes.com/shame-on-ziplogix-and-docusign) Recently I revisited creating contracts on the iPad since I was prompted to renew my annual subscription to the zipForms6 mobile…
I am very excited to announce that I have joined Bradley Real Estate in San Rafael as the newly created Director of Technology, Social Media and Education! I have been following the growth of Bradley Real Estate for the past few years and have liked what I heard and saw. So when I ran across…
Last week I talked about having a clear call to action that would appeal to your target audience (here is the link in case you missed it: https://realtytechbytes.com/the-case-for-a-call-to-action). This week I want to expand on that concept and tell you how I think your call to action should be implemented. To start with, if you…

You may know that I teach a course for the California Graduate Realtor Institute entitled “Money Making Strategies for Success” (I co-authored the most recent revision). I also teach a course entitled “Technology Applications in Real Estate” for the same program, and I was the sole author of the most recent version. Invariably in each…
One of my “secret” prospecting tools as an agent was to send thank you notes to people that I had met. My wrinkle was that I kept a box of thank you notes and a roll of stamps in my car so that I could write that note, address it and mail it immediately. Depending…
Last week I taught a class that I recently wrote called “The Facebook Money Machine…your next client is on Facebook” at a local Association of REALTORS®. We had about 20 agents and brokers show up and for the next 90 minutes they learned about my vision for using the social media giant to locate and…
