I think I really need to get up to speed with Twitter, I just don’t get it yet everyone talks about great results, any more techniques about twitter would help a lot.

[...] BEFORE you try to implement one. Schedule time every morning and evening to devote to social media. 30 minutes in the morning and 30 minutes in the afternoon/evening. If you don’t have a plan – it will take you twice as [...]

Sounds like a plan and a clearcut one that should help in getting anyone started in SM while also providing simple guidelines to help them avoid getting sucked dry by it at the expense of other activities needed to promote business.

For any Realtor looking to expand their business and outreach the best investment I ever made was choosing to go with Realtime Referral (www.realtimereferral.com). It’s made my life easier and my business more profitable!

Hi Guys, well I’m not even a beginner in the social media area I joined Facebook because my wife was playing games there and discovered there was a network of ppl out there but they all talked about Cafe world and Farmville then I had a look a Twitter because every one was twittering about it and had to see for myself if there was opportunity to expand my networking in Realestate and now I am here which I have found interesting and informative, however I am one of those newbies that looks at all this and is totaly confused and dosen’t know where to start.
I can see enormous potential here but to be effective dont u need to be area specific rather than have a shotgun approach to everyone around the world?
It’s gr8 to share, listen to ppls idea’s from around the world and learn different approaches to marketing and all aspects of realestate but how does that help me get a buyer for the property I listed yesterday unless there are a multitude of ppl within a 20 k radius of me who r tuned in to Twitter, Facebook or any of the other social media sited that have been mentioned in other post’s Lol maybe I am like Herman but two decades behind instead of one, I will check out his webisodes to see if that can point me in the direction of the STARTING line before I get left completly behind.
If anyone would like to jump in and help point me in the right direction I would be happy to listen.

Katie,
You have some good tips here. As one of the founders of the real estate-oriented social networking site, RealtyJoin, I can tell you that Marc’s suggestion holds true: members who write interesting blogs, answer questions, or otherwise try to be helpful and informative to others become hubs of activity and attention. On the other hand, members who just post a quick marketing blurb without thinking of their audience’s needs can get marginalized over time.
Another big way to benefit from social media is to become a featured member that all your potential clients & partners can see. RealtyJoin makes it easy for people to be featured.

Katie,

I took a few months off and have the itch to blog again, but there are sooooo many people blogging about real estate in SF, it’s kind of old. I did start a new venture though and we’ll be live soon, so I’ll make sure to let you in on that when it goes live and I’ll certainly employ some of the tips above to master our “socializing”…
