Top Ten Realtor® Tech Tools – Part Two

Last week I gave you Part One which contained what I believe to be 5 of the must have tech tools for real estate agents.  This week I will continue with 5 more must have tech tools.  Truth be told, there are more than 10 tools that I think you should have (and have mastered)…

Top Ten Realtor® Tech Tools

Real estate agents are called upon to provide many services to their buyers and sellers.  The services can range from finding that perfect property for their buyers to marketing a home for their sellers.  At the end of both processes there is an escrow to manage (Hopefully!) with all of the attendant inspections, reports, issues…

Track your URLs with BudURL

Have you ever received an email from someone that contained a long link that broke across several lines? And then when you tried to click on it, it was broken. I sure have, and, I have even sent a few of those myself. Services have popped up all over the Internet to solve that problem…

Drop those business cards

6 cool websites to help your business

Did you ever have one of those days where all of your carefully crafted plans just flew out of the window? Today was such a day for me. I was planning on getting a number of things done that got put off because I was out of town all of last week, but a number…

Information overload solved!

I sift through an incredible amount of information every day. I read 4 blogs (ChrisBrogan, Mashable, LifeHacker, ProBlogger) on a daily basis, others from time to time.  I get e-newsletters from waay too many sources to list here on a daily basis, I read paper magazines about real estate and technology as they arrive, and…

Are you in the game?

As I write this, the New York Giants football team looks like they are not.  The number 1 seeded team in this year’s Super Bowl hunt is likely to go down to Philadelphia (#6) and Donovan McNabb.  Something that no one would have predicted last September. What happened? I can’t say for sure, but from…

A few things to do now to get your business started right now!

2008 is finally over and 2009 is here. The New Year has always felt like new opportunity for me. I always enter January with high hopes for the things that I want to accomplish in the year ahead and this year is no different. Many of you journeyed with me last year on my quest…

It’s been quite a year, hasn’t it?

With all that’s gone on this year, and as weary as we all are of current events, I hesitate to bring this topic up. But, I figure if I helped just one person save even one dollar, then it would be worth it. What am I talking about? Taxes, that’s what. We’ve just gone through…

Five books every real estate agent needs to read (to make more money in 2009)

We are knee deep in the holiday season and as I travel around real estate offices I see fewer of you around.  My assumption is that you are out showing houses, looking at the inventory, meeting new clients and otherwise working on your business in order to be ready for 2009. One of the things…
