5 Things About Blogging I Didn’t Know 359 Days Ago

It’s almost my anniversary. My first post on AgentGenius arrived on September 22, 2008. By my calendar (which I sure hope is the same as yours) that means I’m only six days away from celebrating my blogging birthday.

One tool isn’t always the answer…two (or more) is.

Tools, tools everywhere. It seems everyday, there is a new tool presented to me by agents, brokers, vendors, friends, or through my daily reading and research. We have so many different tools to use everyday to make our jobs easier, better, faster, more cost efficient, or cooler. I love to play with them and after awhile, I decide what’s good ...

Your Blog is You

Your Blog is You

Recently a blogger asked me to review their blog and requested some advice on how she could make it great. I am no expert, and I was flattered beyond belief that she would ask me. So, I took a crack at it. I gave her some technical advice, more along the lines of some of the things I had done. ...
