4 Compelling Reasons Realtors Should Blog

Picture

I was looking for a gym to join recently. 

I know nothing about gyms, even less about which ones are better and why. What do they offer? Do their classes fit my schedule? What does it cost? 

First I asked a few friends for recommendations. Then I did some investigating online. I was shocked to discover that a couple of the gyms I know exist locally were not online at all. 

That was weird.... 

The ones that were online listed only a phone number and address. 

I was shocked. Did they not know they live in a digital age?
​Did they honestly have no idea that their would-be clients are looking for them online??

A lack of online presence says a lot about a business. It shows they don't understand the time they live in, don't care about being accessible, are not tech savvy or forward thinking, and are probably happy with the status quo. 

Their lack of accessibility undermined my trust.  

I went with a company that had a website, posted their class schedules and costs, and had a Facebook page with photos and posts. I could see what they cared about, how they interacted with people, and even the team atmosphere I was so looking for. Their online presence won me over. 

Realtors, like many entrepreneurs, make the mistake of being unavailable online. And it's hurting their business.

Hi there, sorry for the late reply. I am still trading and finding the right trading set up for me.. like what is my risk appetite and most importantly a right mindset/ discipline in trading. Not so much of support but after the course but you can always find like-minded friends to support and exchange notes.
