Thought some of you might be interested in this site - http://www.agentdirectnews.com - they have a free membership, two paid levels (both very affordable) and I think a free trial period. They have more than 100 current and archived webinars covering some great topics...most about an hour long. The maximum dues are $120 a year if and when I decide to join. The 100-plus webinars (and tons of other information) is a lot of education for $120 a year...less than $1.20 per seminar, assuming I listened to all of them or maybe most of them twice. With the membership, you get a free $199 ecourse...mercy, I don't know what all is included, but it's a lot. They have a spreadsheet showing what all you get with each level membership. If you don't join, you still have access to a LOT of free stuff. New webinars (and articles) are coming along all the time, so your dues get you a lot of information. So check it out and see what you think. If you can't afford to join when the trial runs out, you can always go back and join when you have the funds, if it works for you. I was just happy to find a break somewhere. We have to be careful where we spend our limited education budget. I say limited because we pay so many dues and other expenses that there is not much left over for education. Yet in this business, we have to stay on top of things. I'm just passing this on in case some agents on here have not come across this site yet. It's easy to overlook something when you have so much email coming at you every day.

I searched several ways on here for this site but did not find any posts about it. *** http://www.agentdirectnews.com ***

This is the website I would go to when I first started out years ago lot's of articles and it's FREE

That's a good one, also. It's smart to check out all these web sites and what they have to offer. We need to have these sources readily available to click on when we find ourselves with a little extra time on our hands. When we aren't selling, we should be training, something that is hard to find time to do when real estate is hot. In this business, the need for education never ends.

thanks for these links. I for one appreciate them.

Perk, you will enjoy this story. I saved myself an hour long drive and corresponding gas by using one of Gulf Winds links...it was months old but I had been hanging on to it for an "emergency" and sure enough...I had one. So you don't ever know what someone is looking for. Me...I love easy ways to learn. I probably did not do a good enough job of describing the site, but I had called after hours and a lady who intros the webinars was working late, waiting for traffic to clear up, and we talked for about 30 minutes. SHE NEVER ONCE TRIED TO SIGN ME UP FOR THE PAID MEMBERSHIP. Now that's class. PM me if you check out the site and would like to talk to her direct. They have a green building newsletter, also.

My favorite sites.
