Have you seen the FaceBook Pages? Not the regular profiles… I have one of those as well, but rather the pages that are for businesses?
I’d love for you to check it out and become a fan (that just means join the page for updates). I am still learning this emerging media… It is a pretty cool business media, though.

I just made two updates on the blog that I think are worth noting.
The first is that I was able to re-deploy the Lane’s Listings section. Now you will see the page tab near the top of the site. Hovering over it will show you my current personal listings as well as a link to enter the Send Me FREE Custom Listings page.
There are a lot of real estate agents. The NAR reports over 1.2 million members, and the Atlanta area alone has more than 40,000. It is hard to NOT know a real estate agent. Regardless of where I go and who I talk with, they know an agent. Today at the cell phone store, the clerk helping me has an agent for a Mother-in-Law. There are three in my small neighborhood. There are at least two at my son’s pre-school.
Today was Memorial Day… or Decoration Day as it had been known previously. My grandmother referred to it as Decoration Day her entire life.
The purpose of the holiday was to honor those that served in our nation’s military. Without their sacrifices, none of what we have would likely exist.
The old saying is… If you can read, thank a teacher. If you are reading in English, thank a soldier.
Some sacrifice time with their families. Some sacrifice their very lives. There are cemeteries around the world holding the remains of American soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen. They gave their lives in the cause of freedom… both for Americans and others.
I hope you took the opportunity to thank a vet today for their service. But, more importantly, I hope you take the opportunity to thank a vet some other time as well.

Real estate listings need a sign. They all have one, right… or at least most… But there is one problem with the ubiquitous real estate sign… it is boring!
Real estate signs aren’t an exception. I have long been tired of the same ol’ signs… so I decided to do something about it.
So… I looked for a solution. A sign that would stand out. I wanted something that would give an interested buyer a reason to stop and actually take a look.
I think this is a pretty good solution. The idea is to get a buyer out of the car… maybe even to take a picture of the sign.
Of course, as with all marketing, it will be tweaked as time goes by to be even more effective.
And as always, I’d love your feedback!
