For us, a few Social Networks have been picking up speed in the form of contacts and referrals in the last few weeks, perhaps the exponential growth factor is kicking in lately?
I know at our Company's recent convention, one of the speakers (Terry Watson) promoted Facebook (be-friend us - look up Jeff Safrin :) and Linked in ( link to us... look up Grace Safrin) as musts for REALTORS to join and use nowadays.
Many supportive services to our profession of Real Estate Sales are getting on the bandwagon.
You probably have noticed this already, Hotpads.com allows you to sydicate your listed properties for sale to Twitter, (follow us = Safrin )
and
Postlets.Com now has a selection of links to syndicate Property For Sale to various Social sites including Linked in .
In just several months, there have been over a thousand REALTORS who've joined the 1st group we started on Linked in,,,,,,We invite you to join the REALTOR Referrals Group !
Today we started a new group on Linked in called : Indiana Real Estate For Sale..if you are using
Postlets.com it's easy to syndicate your Indiana Property Listing to this group - we invite you to join this group as well !
Happy Networking!

Hi Grace! These are ALL wonderful networking arenas as well as advertising medium for your listings! I LOVE the social networking aspect of my job!!
I post to hotpads.com but, did not realize that they also posted to Twitter but, my AR posts contain a bit more info than the hotpads ad and it goes directly to Twitter too. That is interesting though--I wonder if it does it automatically??!
Have a great week!
Grace - Thank you for the great information. I knew about Linked In but Nothing of Postlet a & hotpads. Really appreciate your willingness to share.
God Bless
Ditto - I knew about LinkedIn but not postlet and hotpads.

Hello Debe - hotpads asks if you want to tweet the listing after you input - if you say yes a box apprears for your twitter name and passcode to upload it.
Hello Sharon & Greg - you are welcome - hope it helps and God Bless you too :)
Hello Matt - you could do a postlet about your services as well - I've seen them online.
Thanks to all for taking time to stop by and comment
Sincerely,
Grace
Hi Grace, yep..LinkedIn is a great social network. I will have to check out hotpads. Thanks for the info. ;-)
Hi Teri thanks for stopping by and sharing!
Sincerely,
Grace
Thanks Grace! I have Hotpads via Point2 and via Backpage so, it is automatic and I don't enter it directly on Hotpads. I think I'm going to check it out with one and see how it goes! Thank you so much for this info...
Morning, Jeff & Grace:
thanks for the tip on Hotpad - I like to push my Staged properties out as a kind of dual marketing push. Will have to check them out!
How's things in Valpo? I grew up in M.C. - used to head over there all of the time to shop at Fetla's.
You are welcome Debbie :)
Hello Michael - wow - small world -we shop at the outlet mall in Michigan City and love the zoo by the Lake too!
Fetla's closed a few years back - it was the most unusual place I have ever shopped LOL ...I'm not surprised you remember that praticular experieince about life in NW IN :)
Thanks to you both for taking time to stop by and comment.
Sincerely,
Grace
Thank you for the much needed information! Hopefully I will find you on "in" as well.
Angie Grossman
Thanks Angie - looking forward to getting your linked in email!

You mentioned Terry Watson at your meeting. I wonder if he told you his story about "perception is everything" where he gets on an empty elevator to go meet his colleagues and mentors. At the next floor a stranger gets on the elevator. Terry then notices a terrificly wicked smell which he knows did not come from himself. The stranger gets off at the next floor leaving Terry almost in tears from the smell. Terry's destination is the next floor to his relief. The elevator door opens and all the people Terry was going to meet get in the elevator. OMG! LOL! Perception is everything!
Funny Story Patrick - We've heard it before! (not sure it was at his seminar though). Thanks for stoppng by.
Sincerely,
Grace
