About This Article The following question comes from a real estate postcard questionnaire I sent to more than 3,000 real estate agents and brokers. I compiled hundreds of responses to create a list of the most commonly asked questions. This is one of those questions.Question: How do I differentiate my real estate postcards from what all of the other agents are mailing in my area?Answer: You're wise not to imitate other agents in your area.

Hungry and eager, innovative, open-minded and resourceful, all of its attention focused on finding and keeping customers.Things start to happen and the business begins to grow.Meanwhile, something sinister begins to occur. Slowly, subtly and insidiously, the anti-entrepreneurial inertia begins to creep in.As the business continues to grow, we take on more and more responsibility.

I hate a micro-manager is what many people are saying these days. Do you feel that no matter what you do the micromanager is sitting on your shoulders so to speak? Yes many of us feel that way. For example, the supervisor gives you several tasks to do. You put them in order and hop to it. Then all of a sudden there they are asking you if the task is done as of yet. Many times I'm sure you notice them checking your work every day. Even every hour they will check to see if you have finished those tasks and test the accuracy.

Presentation Skill Training: The Law of Performance
Not your performance, their performance. The audience must go out and apply the information you have given or they wasted their time. Even worse, YOU wasted their time. As speakers it’s our obligation to supply practical methods for the crowd to make our words and ideas reality in their lives.1. Design an Easy to Remember Outline. Some people will take notes, others will not. Create your presentation so that the main points are unforgettable. You’ll need to limit those points to five or less and tie them directly to the purpose of your talk. (This is covered thoroughly in the Instant Speaking Success System.)2. Furnish Handouts When Appropriate. When the setting allows use han

Marketing Tips - On a Budget
I don’t know about you, but when I started my business and even today with a son in college and two kids at home who love to shop as much as mom, I don’t have a lot of money to spend on marketing. I need to make sure that every penny I spend is spent wisely, very wisely. So when I market my business, I need to make sure that I’m creative and use all the tools I have available that don’t cost money. Here are some tips that I have found that worked for me.Radio/Media - It’s not that hard. Have a plan of action and stick to it. Each week decide to send out so many press releases, contacts to radio stations, local media, etc. Look to woman’s networks, work-at-home networks, and oth

What To Do After The Job Interview
So you have the interview and you think it went well.But what do you do next?Do you wait, like 90%+ of people... or do you write a letter/email to your interviewer thanking him or her?I would suggest sending/emailing the interviewer a note.This will accomplish the following:1. The interviewer will notice that you took some time to thank him or her for interviewing you. This is usually appreciated as so few people take the time to say "thank you".2.
