There it was, right under our nose!  As you would expect, Realtors are very social people, the kind of folks that are always right out in front, keeping everyone smiling and usually tend to be the life of the party.  They are the kind of people that will come along side of you to work out your issues and tend to be the kind of friends that people call in a pinch – there are the kind of people that you can count on. 

As Realtors we have always been in touch with a tool known as “reverse marketing” – we have a new property listed and, because of the relationships we have with friends, family and past clients, we are able to “spread the word” so to speak by sending information out over the Internet airways.  Low and behold that effort just got easier, small business’s to large corporations are seeing the benefit of tapping into this wealth of social networking through Facebook and Twitter.  If you don’t have a page on Facebook, try it out – it is very user friendly and will take you step by step.  If you have a business, get a page – you will be amazed how many fans link in to your page to watch how you are doing, what types of products and services you offer and when you are available.  It is a tool for the generation of today!

Real Estate, along with all marketing efforts need to keep in tune with the times – today’s common language and conversations are held via keyboards and telephone texting – if you want to get your message out there – you need to be on-line!  Bear Realty and our Bear Realty Sales Associates have taken a proactive, professional and every improving stance to strengthen our national presence online.  We Facebook, we tweet, we blog and we reach thousands of potential clients using this media.  In a business where only the strong survive – you want success on your side.  Check us out at www.bearrealty.com.  We are here to take down the real estate obstacles for you! 

I guess the most difficult challenge in all of this “internet wonderland” is to remember that you (we) are having a conversation – we get our thoughts out “there” but then comes the great opportunity to Listen….
