Screely enhances your screenshots and photos!

I found a fun little, online tool that scratches an occasional itch. Sometimes we need to send pictures to a client or to another agent.  Wouldn’t it be cool if we could dress them up a little before we send them? Screely instantly turns your screenshot into a beautiful image that you can share on…

Put an end to spam calls and have fun doing it!

A few weeks ago I told you about a way to stop robo callers (https://realtytechbytes.com/stop-robo-callers-in-their-tracks) that was provided by my carrier, AT&T. It worked pretty well for what it did but today I want to tell you about an app that will actually help you fight back against the robocallers. It’s called RoboKiller.  It does…

Fool proof way to collect lead info from Facebook ads!

Long time readers know that I am a huge fan of advertising for buyers and sellers on Facebook.  There simply is no better way to get your message in front of potential clients as effectively or cost effectively.

The best way (so far) to manage the data on your iPhone!

I’ve talked about this before and I am going to talk about it again today.

Is another agent getting your sales and listings?

Last week I talked about buying leads, https://realtytechbytes.com/is-it-luck-hard-work-or-skills. This week I want to take a different approach. If you take a look at the graphic you’ll see that 51% of Buyers found the home that they purchased on the Internet.  Only 30% found them via the agent they previously used! If you look at the…

Is it luck, hard work or skills?

Ever notice how some agents have all the luck?  I mean some agents get a new listing every week.  Heck, some even get them daily! How do they do it?  Who knows how they do it, but I’ll bet that hard work, a systematic approach to prospecting, great conversion and presentation skills and maybe a…
