Why must real estate engage with social media?
●It is unlikely to go away
●Some employers already check out future employees – (perhaps your clients are checking out your team)
●It is very fast. Information can become available very quickly.
●Your customers are already using it – what are they saying about you?
●Potential for conflict of brands between individuals and companies
●If you don’t engage with it, your competitors will
●If you don’t take it seriously your reputation may be at risk.
