Cleaning things out – both literally and metaphorically – can shake things up for the better and create new thoughts and new avenues. In this book, Bob Phibbs, the “Retail Doctor,” helps you with any issue your retail business may have – from marketing more effectively, to mark-ups and price points, increasing profit and much more. read more

(Article Marketing) Who Will Make Social Networking Pay off for Real Estate Professionals? – RisMedia.com (press release)

Tony — Mon, 10 May 2010 23:12:08 +0000

That study also shows that social media usage by small business owners increased from 12% to 24% in the past year and that almost one out of 5 small business owners uses social media as part of their marketing strategy. My personal advice is that until someone has a product or program that measurably and accurately measures actual return on investment for the time and effort spent on social media, agents are better off using social media to network or recruit. Dalton and Hundley commissioned a social media survey to try to analyze best practices and to build a road map for agents looking to successfully employ social media in their practice of real estate. To my mind, this census and book will be a trustworthy guide for the agent to follow in pursuit of social media success?”far better than the sometimes delusional rants of ?social media marketing gurus?. read more
