How’s Facebook Working for You?

New fun Chat insert

So how is Facebook working for you?
Timelines, Friends Lists, Walls, Tags it’s a whole new language. That’s because Facebook is almost as big as the 2nd largest country in the world it needs one. If you think about it, the comprehension of how to navigate it is global and spans every culture and language that participates. That is INSANE!

Now I know some of you are tempted to do this. You can ignore it but it might run you over, or you can get in there with the crowd. You can determine the pace, walk, run or you can choose to master it. I would suggest that if you ignore it you may find one day that you are holding on to your pager waiting for it to go off, so to speak. That doesn’t mean you live on it. It means you learn to understand it place.

Drum Roll………………..  Coming January 2012 for the first time Real Dynamic Agents-Coldwell Banker Vanguard Realty will open only 1 workshop per month to any Realtor in JAX and that’s $ocial $erious. Seats will be limited. You will be able to register on http://www.realdynamicagents.com/. Keep your ears to the ground and tell someone you love :)

Now here is a fun freebie just well, I don’t know so you can mess with your teenager and show them you know more than they do.  There is a fun new feature for chat.

You can insert anyone’s picture in a conversation by placing double brackets around their username for Facebook.
Mine is  ie https://www.facebook.com/#!/TeamKnapp

Here’s how:

1. Start your chat

2. When you’d like to refer to a friend or, say, Kim Knapp you put their profile id (either their name or a string of numbers for those users who haven’t claimed their choice URL) into double brackets. So, that would be [[teamknapp]] for a picture of me, [[zuck]] for Mark Zuckerberg and son on.

3. Impress your friends on Facebook chat with this cool new gimmick

In the meantime watch out for www.Realdynamicagents.com and stay connected

New Year!

Peace out and Stay Real!

All Roads lead to Rome

September 30, 2011 By Leave a Comment
Social Sharing from your Blog

I am sitting here at my computer working on the topic, social networking. I got to a specific slide and I decided to call it “All Roads Lead to Rome”.  You are probably wondering what in the world is she talking about. When you post video or a link, share a Blog or a property that you have where does that information originate from. If someone clicks on it where does it lead?

1.If a friend of theirs decides they like and and reposts it, are you then gone? Or if you originated the content then you go with it and it leads back to you. let me explain.

2.You find an interetsing video on Youtube, you post it and say, “this is a great video you should watch it.” If a friend reposts this link there is no connection to you.

3.You find an interesting video on Youtube,  insert it in your Blog, talk about why you like the video. Go to your Blog site as a consumer would, click on the Blog Title, scroll to the bottom and click on the sharing social icon of choice, share. Now it links bak to you

Social Sharing from your Blog

 


If you have a listing, suggest to your seller to go to your site, or Realtor.com, your Youtube channel, whichever one works for you and social share their home, let their friends know, “hey my house is for sale”

The point is we work so hard on all of the marketing we do, lets make sure that when we get it out there and spend time riding the social wave,we  don’t waste time or our money. If social networking is what you are in to then as often as you can you want all roads to lead back to YOU.

If this was useful, give me a shout out. Thanks for stopping by Real Dynamic Agents

Get your Social Groove On!

June 18, 2011 By Leave a Comment

If you are between the ages of 18 and 34 “they” say the first thing you do is check your Facebook. If you are between 35-45 that is probably the second thing you do, over 50 it may not be the first but it very well may be on the morning list. That being said if your business plan involves socially connecting with people will you be there?

I have talked and trained with many agents who say I go in the room called FB, but I don’t feel like I have anything to say. I really don’t think, “I had lunch with Linda” is going to enhance my connections. I agree probably having lunch with Linda is not a big conversation mover. You have to look at Twitter & FB like a Cocktail party with or without adult beverages. How do you start a conversation? How about, “Linda and I had lunch at the Crab Shack for the first time, anyone else ever been there?”  The point is to have a conversation with your social connections not to talk at people.

Posting your status is one side of socially connecting.  There is your engaging with your friends on the other. I have had some people say, “my friend or customer posted a picture of their grandchild and already 20 people said how cute they were. Isn’t it too much for me to pile on and say how cute they are too?” You are at a party someone pulls out a picture of their adorable grandbaby, everyone says “how cute” but you remain silent as not to pile on. Hmmmm… See the logic  Was that a light bulb moment?

People want to engage that is why Facebook is approaching being
equal to the 2nd largest country in the WORLD.

Need help with making sure you post, don’t have time to post, don’t want to login to all these sites check out Hootsuite, Tweetdeck and for content help Socialmadesimple. I am love SocialMadeSimple because they supply content. More on that another day.

This was the intro stay tuned- Follow and subsribe for more info on being socially RAD
Go connect, start a conversation, make friends and REMEMBER ALWAYS BE GENUINE
