    Following this week’s release of the follr.com Website, our sister company Social Gears today announced they are sponsoring the third Virtual REBarcamp, being held nationwide on April 6th.

    Social Gears co-founder and CIO, Mark Wayman, stated:

    “Having announced the release of the follr.com Website it seemed only natural that we support this great educational platform, especially off the back of AgencyLogic’s support for the first two virtual REBarcamp events.

    Real estate, more than any other industry, is actively engaged in learning about and using many social tools. As a result, Realtors stand head and shoulders above others in business when it comes to appreciating the benefits of a free social business card.”

    2010. Game On!

    Stephen M. FellsHappy New Year! I’m sure many in real estate are hoping this year will be a significant improvement on last and today offers a great way to start things in the right direction. It’s time to get busy!

    As recently reported in the October edition of RISMedia’s Real Estate magazine:

    “In the 2009 Member Survey conducted by the Stark County Association of Realtors, 78% of Realtors agreed that real estate education was “important” or “very important” to their businesses.”

    The article adds:

    “Sadly, though, with agents making 14% less money than last year, according to the NAR 2009 Member Profile, many agents are postponing additional skill-building and education”

    The article continues to detail the benefits of no-cost training with Melody Bohl, broker/owner of Carpe Diem Realty in Newton, MA pointing out “Agents look at the price of training and balk, thinking about where else they could spend that money instead. What they don’t realize is that the training they invest in today is the reason they will make more money tomorrow. You have to invest in yourself.”

    On that note today is your lucky day! The second Virtual RE Barcamp (an event AgencyLogic is proud to sponsor) runs all day and brings together 28 of the most respected presenters, leaders and educaters in real estate. It’s free, it’s Web based (so you can get involved from the comfort of your office or home) and it’s free (worth two mentions).
