Featured in RealtorMag. In the film,Transformers, I love how Bumblebee and the other Autobots come to the aid of humans in style (yellow Camaro with racing stripes and what-not's). Well, auto-bots are not just for the movies!   AutoBots aren't just for the movies anymore! As a real estate pro, you probably understand the need to connect with potential leads instantly. But, unfortunately, instantly may mean at 2:30 AM when you are fast asleep. Or, in the middle of heated negotiations. Or, at a closing that just had an unexpected hiccup or delay. Or, when you are simply trying to enjoy dinner with your loved ones. In such moments, how realistic is it to say you actually follow-up with leads in the idealized 15-minutes purported by lead-conversion gurus and statistics, especially if those ... 05/16/2017

Originally shared at Inman Connect on the Road: Chicago as 3 Deal-Killers to Growing Your Business on InstagramAs Featured in Inman Chicagoland    Remember the days when you had to pay per line or character to most effectively market your listings and business?  In the heyday of print advertising, we REALTORS learned how to succinctly create ads that just gave the bare bone basics due to cost (e.g. 3/2, B.O.M., Motv., S.S. Kit., $336k). But the problem is we have brought those habits to Instagram (IG) where you likely stick out like an aggravating, sore thumb.To grow your network on Instagram (or any social media platform for that matter), be sure to think like a REALTOR but post like a friend.  In other words, please put on your consumer hat: if the double-tap worthy posts are funny, ... 06/13/2016

Excerpt from Plan to Win! As published in RealtorMag Have you ever expressed frustrations similar to the following? “She contacts me at odd hours of the night!” "He always calls at the last minute to view a home!" “Their kids’ rooms are always messy during a showing!” “He called on a for sale sign and made an offer without telling anyone I represented him!” “They won’t sign my buyer brokerage!” “She posted pictures of her new home but I thought I was supposed to be her agent!” You are nice to your clients and give your all to the real estate relationship with them.  However, have you noticed they do not return the favor?  They are out schmoozing other agents’ listings without you.  Or, they are off “canvassing the town” for buyers.

Could Gondolas Be a Metro Atlanta Transportation Solution?Having never traveled to Italy, when you mention the world gondola to me, my first thought comes to the ski resorts of Montana or Colorado! Those big cable cars as they are also called, to take multiple skiiers to the top of the mountain at one time, without the exposure of the elements on a traditional chair lift. And many times, in the summer months, take people to the top of the mountain for breathtaking vistas, and lunch at a ski chalet. But imagine the same thing whisking you over I-285, or from the Sandy Springs Marta station to Ravina/ and surrounding office locations? Could that be possible?Well, the cities of Sandy Springs, Dunwoody and Brookhaven are expected to launch a study to see if those very ski gondolas might be ... 02/19/2016
