It's time to be real and be human and do business. If you want to know what the latest and greatest is, they rely upon an expert like Stefan Swanepoel. Every year he publishes Trends Report,and it is required reading for everyone in this industry. In the 2012 report Stefan has a great section on social media,read it and learn from it. His job is to tell you where you should be and what's coming next. Everyone is talking about Pinterest (Pinterest.com), there are classes to take and webinars to watch and listen to. It's really all kind of silly. Pinterest is so simple,the first rule is stop marketing,you are a human being in the best marketing technique is to be yourself and not annoy people with broadcasting information about your business. That's the most important lesson any agent needs to learn about social media. You don't need a webinar for Pinterist,you only need an account and from there it's self-explanatory. Check it out this simple visual nature of it makes it incredibly appealing, but be careful it also highly addictive this is definitely a use the egg timer type of activity.

@victorblund Good stuff Victor. WAVGroup is one of my favorite resources for getting a sense of the pulse of the industry, it's always wonderful to hear Marilyn speak, she's amazing, so? are you and Mike. Congrats on the mentions.
I post on Craigslist thru two different sites and one has MUCH better results... I wonder what determines that?
@tickershow What's wrong with? my webcam? I need a green screen. If you mean the yellowish tone I was playing with the settings a few weeks ago and was living on borrowed time today. But sure.... send away lol =) Maybe I can join you guys someday, I am a huge fan. =)
I have gone through the Trends Report 5 times. (WAV Group was mentioned in it a few times so we were given an early copy). I agree - Awesome read for people who want to take a look at the entire industry.
I am loving Pinterest, but for fun - not for business. You? are right. Craigslist rocks for real estate listings.
Maya, I need your address so I? can send you a better web cam! The world needs more Maya!
Great stuff as always.
I should add, especially from someone? like you. =) #GregsABigDeal
