Dear Real Estate Professional,

Did you know you can spend less time writing and get more productive responses from clients, friends, and family?

Like it or not, the written word is the most-used form of communication online.  In a business which used to be almost entirely “belly-to-belly” and “phone-to-phone,” more often than not conversations are happening via email, Facebook, text message, and live chat.  Though video email, video chat, and other multimedia channels exist, the king is still the written word.

This free guide will teach you:

• How to ensure timely responses to your email
• The keys to writing respectful messages that get you what you want
• The deadliest sins of writing online that can sink you
• Keys to productive Facebook updates and comments
• How to cut your writing time in half

Tune up your communication skills and write more effective, efficient messages today!

An excerpt from the guide:

“How you “sound” to others depends on how well you write.  This guide was written to help you become a more efficient, effective communicator.  It will attempt to cure you of bad habits, help bring your writing focus, and cut down on the amount of time you spend writing each day by advising you on concepts of brevity, clarity, and tone.

In addition to email “dos and don’ts,” you’ll find a specific section on writing for Facebook, as well as a handy tech tip which will save you literally thousands of typed words in the future.”

Been sitting on the fence about how to use Facebook for building your real estate network?  Now is the time to dive in!

Much like our Twitter Training for Real Estate Agents, this new guide covers the fundamentals you need to know to grow your real estate business using Facebook. Dodge common pitfalls and learn the optimal settings to ensure the right mix of personal and professional with this guide.

In one compact guide you’ll learn:

• The balance between “sales” and “relationship building”
• What a Facebook fan page can do
• The right way to connect with clients and colleagues
• How to manage your privacy settings
• The essentials of using notes and apps

If you’ve been putting off Facebook, don’t worry! This guide makes the first steps easy.

An excerpt from the Facebook guide for real estate agents:

“Often former clients and/or referrals from them can be your best asset in real estate.   Many real estate agents use Facebook to keep tabs on former clients less obtrusively, and to stay aware of what’s going on in their lives.

Facebook is exactly the sort of place where people make announcements about big occurrences in their lives… a big promotion, a new engagement, the impending birth of a baby.  These are exactly the sorts of events that precipitate real estate transactions.  Being there when you’re needed can be more low-key than aggressively posting photos of your listings and giving the addresses out to all 182 of your friends and fans.”

No single social network may be more utilized by business professionals than LinkedIn, and now you can receive a free step-by-step guide on how to use LinkedIn to sell more real estate.

An excerpt from the LinkedIn book:

“Social media platforms enable their users to reach out to others with similar interests, businesses, or professional needs, and then to build relationships.  The plural relationships is key here because social media are all tools to help you network – i.e. build relationships on a large scale.

In real estate, for example, your profile on these various social media is hugely important in creating great introductions, and strong first impressions often lead to lasting and fruitful relationships.  In LinkedIn’s case, they lead specifically to fruitful professional relationships, referrals, and recommendations.”
