Do you have an opportunity filter?

If you're like me, you probably can't get through your day without being bombarded by new "opportunities" in your inbox or over the phone. Promote this, sell that ... the opportunities are endless. That is why I've created an opportunity "filter" to help me decide what I should pursue and what I should leave alone.

I was talking with a potential JV partner today and explained some of my process with him. I told him I was a "recovering opportunity addict" (I'm a work in progress) ... wh

Which Social Networking site is the best for business?

Hmmm, this is a great question, and one that I hear a lot. The answer, in my best politicians voice (no offense to my political friends) ... is "it depends". You might think that is a copout answer ... but I think it is true.

Ok, so what do I mean by that?

The power of a strong Linkedin.com profile

I had the opportunity this morning to put on my social media "evangelist" hat and spread the word at the Keller Williams Realty office in Corvallis. There were about 20 Realtors and industry folks in the room. As I typically do, I asked by a show of hands who had a Linkedin profile, Facebook profile and/or Fan page, Twitter profile, and blog. And as usually is the case, most hands went up for Linkedin ... BUT, there was a lot of questions as to "what do I do with it?" There is SO Much you can… Continue

Should you have video on your web site? 80% of web users watch online video...

With the advent of faster internet connections, online video is fast becoming the norm vs. the exception. That is backed up by a recent study by ComScore that showed that about 80% of web users watch online video. Online video and audio is a great way to engage the visitors to your web site.
