Social Media…

• Isn’t anything new! It is just being social/connecting in a

different place.

• Is a place to be seen and remind people who you are, and

that you have certain skillsets and expertise.

Facebook - Why Even

Bother?

Facebook is another place to meet people and connect. For free.

The Goal• Beyond the social, to establish/brand yourself as the local

real estate expert

• People work with other people that they know, like, and

trust – and who are top of mind when they are ready to act

• Facebook can help people get to know you and help you

stay in front of them in a regular, non-invasive way

such purposes.

Social Media Quick Reminder…

• Don’t say anything online that you wouldn’t say in a

crowded room

• Avoid drama and negativity

• Once it’s out there, it’s out there

“Start by being yourself. However customers relate to you

in person is how they should ideally relate to you online,

says Gama. “My number one tip is that whatever your

personality is in real life, make that shine online as well,”

she advises.”
