Maui Moderator Veteran Member Registered: 01/13/10 Posts: 726 Loc: Maui, HI	Originally Posted By: lindenmoe I totally agree it pays off..and is worth the effort.. like say you spent a half hour each day writing a good blogpost 500 words... then a half hour of participating on forums that gives a backlink..like here and others. like commenting on other blogs... thats 30 hours a month if you did that 2 months straight and generate 1 sale at 6,000 thats $100 per hour... LOL, well, I have a VERY distinct way of doing business than Linden and view the industry differently, but I have to respect his methodical ways and how he analyzes every aspect of his business practice. _________________________ Visit a Maui Blog , then view our ActiveRain page and Maui Wordpress Blog for local events and market stats.

Doin' bpose Major Contributor Registered: 01/26/09 Posts: 2961 Loc: Old Dominion	Originally Posted By: Perky_REALTOR My broker at the time had forbidden agents from having their own websites. (didn't want any competition, of course). When I asked about if I could have a blog on ActiveRain, the broker was OK with that, thinking it was like MySpace I guess and I'd just be putting stupid stuff on it. I used it for lead generation, of course....and they found it and told me to take it down. I said no, I have a listing and several leads from it, I am not going to take it down...so they fired me. I learned two valuable lessons: do not work for a competing broker, and make sure your broker allows you to have your own website lead generation. LOL 1)Perky = ahead of the curve 2) wunderbar advice _________________________ Trust your Maker. Watch your manager.

For an agent though - you know you are probably not going to sell that specific home - BUT, if you work the Open House correctly, you should get 2 more pieces of business on average from every Open House that you host. You have to go after the buyers and the hidden gem from Open Houses... sellers! _________________________ http://www.AgentBrokerSuccess.com REAL Solutions For Real Estate Sales Success!
