As a former WSJ reporter who's spokien at over 40 real estate conferences I think you offer a breath of fresh air. Realtors must learn to differentiate themselves. Living in the village where Brad Inman lives and being surrounded by both the Traditionalists (Realtors who've not changed much) and the cutting edge start-ups has been a fascinating study from the sidelines. And Lisa's book is a great read. Look for Dan & Chip Heath's new book next month on making ideas stick - and Ciji Ware's on Rightsizing - cordially Kare, SavvyHerr Kudos on your thoughtful blot.

Living in the village where Brad Inman lives and being surrounded by both the Traditionalists (Realtors who’ve not changed much) and the cutting edge start-ups has been a fascinating study from the sidelines.

And Lisa’s book is a great read.

Look for Dan & Chip Heath’s new book next month on making ideas stick – and Ciji Ware’s on Rightsizing

About half of my leads come from the internet and I work with a few gen x folks too. More internet use by home buyers and sellers means more opportunities for me. Back to the Gen Xer's I have found that they are less likely to return and email or a phone call unless I ask them to. They just read the email or listen to the voice message and never respond, or take days to respond. Text messages to their phones are responded to promptly. kids! Just bring it on!
