I won't promote the community or the complete saying because I respect everyone's religious preferences and affiliation. I <B><I>do</I> want to share the first part of the saying, which is "Make a friend, be a friend..." For our purposes the third part could "to earn your friend's business."</b> It's such an important concept in business and in life. If people know we care about them beyond making a buck, they are much more likely to trust us and want to do business with us. And God knows real estate agents are (maybe) a notch about attorneys and used car salesmen - with apologies to anyone reading this who might be in one of these professions!

There's no sense in trying to convince them either. The more you try, the more distant they become. "if they click with you in a social arena, a transaction with someone you get along with is always easier (and ideal), right?!" But of course! It makes life and work more fun this way. And that's how things should be...you should be having fun doing what you do. “If someone doesn’t like you, they wouldn’t like your services anyhow…”

We live in a microwave, drive-thru, glasses-in-about-a-hour society. We want results, and we want them NOW! However, much of it depends on your individual marketing plan, and how you want to use a particular SN to further your business. I see Twitter as more of a B2B network more so than something I use for consumer-oriented prospects. Much of it is planting seeds. Much of what we do as RE pros is simply planting seeds. Twitter is like a fun fertile field for sowing who and what I am. Like all such involvements, it's a garden that needs tending. But there are rewards, both professionally and personally.
