There were a couple of really good reasons for doing this, not the least of…
I have to confess. I have a secret weapon that allows me to stay on top of my Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn networks. If you’ve got more than a few friends on these networks, keeping up with everyone’s activities can be pretty time consuming, but keep up you must. Otherwise, what is the point of…

In last week’s post I introduced this multi-part series of posts on how successful Realtors® are making a living these days. This post will continue where we left off last week by examining what I consider to be the most important tool that a Realtor® has…and it’s one that most of us have yet to…
Pop quiz! When was the last time you backed up your important data on your computer?
