Who cares about the photo on your business card?

There was an intriguing article on Agent Genius today about whether or not to include your photo in your real estate branding. The article generated a lot of good feedback from agents on both sides of the fence. Actually I think is fundamentally the wrong question to ask.  As the former VP Marketing for Fisher-Price, in my opinion, branding has NOTHING to do with whether you include a photo or not. Brands are built on a clear definition of your unique value proposition.  They are also built on DELIVERING against your value proposition consistently and better than anyone else.  Fisher-Price, for [...]

Clareity Study shows big MLS – Broker disconnect

Real Estate Technology consulting firm, Clareity along with REAL Trends conducted a 2010 MLS Initiatives Survey for brokers. They surveyed 500 of the nation’s top brokers and received 150 responses.

In my reading, I was not so surprised by the results, but surprised that brokers have a lack of understanding of the initiatives themselves. Listing Syndication - 36% of brokers oppose or strongly oppose it. If so, why are brokers syndicating listings at all. The MLS is not syndicating the listings, brokers opt into the free [...]
