Hey guys, I did a private conference call last night with viewers, readers,
and audience members of Joeann Fossland coaching services. We had
an intimate gathering of agents who want to learn more about finding
the time to grow younger.

As a 28 year old I span a good generational gap between Gen Y and
the baby boomers. I know how my parents react and think as well as
of course my own peers.

The call you download below is 60 minutes and delves into two parts.

Part 1: the mindset
Part 2: the social media tools

Enjoy the MP3 recording.

Luetta Newnam, a super agent and social-medialite sent this to me today
which pretty much sums up the “lame side” of twitter. It is really funny!

What does the Boston Tea Party of 1773,  the 2009 Real Estate Market, and
Twitter have in common?

I’ll make this short and sweet.
also the link to last week’s call is below.

1773 U.S. colonist protested against “taxation without representation” on
goods and services imposed by England and dumped £10,000 (in 1773
money) into Boston Harbor.

Why did they do this?

The colonist felt they had “no voice” or “representation” on the important
issues impacting their lives and lashed out.

Fast forward to 2009.

In today’s challenging Real Estate market, homeowners are desperately
looking for a “voice” to represent their interests and the internet is
the 1st place they’re clamoring to for answers (before lashing out).

With 100’s of ways to be that “voice” of real estate in your community,
one of the most viral and untapped “hang outs” is Twitter, a f-r-e-e social
media platform for sharing quick 140 characters “info blips” that lead to
massive action.

Last Thursday night…

Me, Nicole Nicolay of the popular real estate blog “mytechopinion.com”
and Brad Nix, co-host of the upcoming exclusive who’s who of real estate
technology conference “REtechSouth”, sat down and ripped out a page
ahead of the event and did 50+ minutes of “Twitter Raw”.

If you missed it or want to learn more on how to be the “voice of
representation” in your market, I just posted the download link below.

http://GoodMorningRealEstate.com/live/retechsouth/mp3.htm

On this link you’ll want to grab access to your f-r-e-e download and watch
the little video I made, which gives you instructions on what to do if you’re
hungry for education beyond the call.

As Realtors, we live in unprecedented times, which requires unprecedented
thinking, and most importantly action.

I’ll head out on this almost rhetorical question…
What actions are you taking to be the voice in your community?

I love all the positive feedback I’ve been getting from all my readers and
viewers and want you to know there’s a standing open invitation for you to
reach out, email, and “tell me” what I can do to help grow your business.

Have a great evening!

Sincerely,
Justin

PS: Some agents got so impassioned after listening to Thursday night’s
call they couldn’t wait to tell me how excited they are and booked a ticket
to REtechSouth.

If the whim of expanding your “RE technology” expertise rears it’s head,
you can scratch that itch and meet up with me and the 200+ other RE
tech gurus for the live 1-day event at REtechSouth.

A little note, if you buy through the link above, I get $20 for helping them
get the word out, but instead of pocketing the cash, I’m going to donate
100% of proceeds to the “Habitat for Humanities”.

PLUS if you act right now they’re giving away a free “hotel” night to one
luck winner who  registers before tonight!

So before I run out for a movie…

Check out the REtechSouth line up for March (coming up very soon)
and grab your copy of last week’s “Twitter Raw” podcast MP3.

It’s me Justin, did you make it to the Thursday night’s live
“Zillow v. Trulia” call?

If not, I did record it and as promised, it’s now available
for download.

I’ll tell you it was truly a boxing match and even though there
was a little “mud slinging”, one thing there there was no shortage
of was competent answers!

Going for the gold!

Running through the questions like gold meadlist Jessy Owen,
in his 1936 Olympic 100 meter dash, Fran and Sara cleared the
hurdles to make it very clear who your “champion” is.

http://GoodMorningRealEstate.com/live/zillowtrulia/mp3.htm

Pulling no punches, the information in this call will save you
literally hours of research and give you the clear tools to make
a decision where your time and money is best spent.

I’m impartial.
I’m just the referee.
I have no vested interest in either one.

However I do have a vested interest in helping Realtors discover
new, simple, and low cost ways to boost business (no cliche).

After rave reviews poured into my inbox this morning from my
new “teleconference” friends like Bill Gottfried, a Realtor from
Houston who said…

“GREAT PROGRAM TONIGHT!!!!  Very well done!!!!!
Next up - Google vs. Yahoo Real Estate!!! Thanks so much for
organizing the great telecon tonight, very productive, very worthwhile,
and very educational. Thanks again, all greatly appreciated.

…I’ve “quietly” decided to open up my “BreakingGroundsLive”
webinar video site which has been closed to new members since
Dec. to give you the opportunity to learn more (much more).

http://GoodMorningRealEstate.com/live/zillowtrulia/mp3.htm

Call it a shameless plug or just being tuned into to what agents
want, either way my site “BreakingGroundsLive” answers those
bigger questions, by featuring 37+ top experts, like Fran and Sara,
who succinctly shoot it straight.

Like the conference call, they save you the time of traveling to
events across the country and the money you would have spent
on hotels and admission, by just being a few “mouse clicks”
away.

This service is not for everyone and is not a “magic bullet”, in
fact you should be wary of anyone claiming to have a “magic
bullet”.

That is why I’ve taken the guess work out by offering a 14 day,
$1 dollar pass to see if it’s right for you.

So like a “1-2 punch”, adding the Trulia v. Zillow call plus my
“Breaking Grounds” video site will make sure you come out
swinging!

http://GoodMorningRealEstate.com/live/zillowtrulia/mp3.htm

Enjoy the all this great stuff!

Warmly,
Justin

PS: As you can tell my passion is writing, speaking, and helping
stimulate ideas that lead to action!

I’ve got tons of great things coming up like Realtor.com v. Winner,
and a Luxury Market Round Table Event and so I could use some
help getting the word out.

So if you share the same passions, love helping others learn, and
are an avid blogger, social medialite and/or have a great relationship
with your peers via e-newsletter, shoot me back a quick email and we
can pick up from there.
