Consumer Centric … sold out! Thank you!

April 23, 2008 OR May 7, 2008

$35.00 per person includes 3 hour NH CE credit but most importantly this class will show you WHAT you need to do to stay competitive in this changing real estate environment!

Consumer Centric covers not only the Generations but particularly the needs of Gen X and Y who will be our 1st time home buyer for the next 20 years. Learn how to market to them as well as to the connected Baby Boomers.

We’ll cover Blogging and why you should be doing it, real estate social networking sites and managing your web presence.

This class will give you an overview of what you’ll need to know to participate responsibly in a Web 2.0 Connected environment.

Have you heard of The Real Estate Paradigm shift? Technology has transformed real estate as we have known it. Today both new and experienced agents alike need to understand the dynamics of the online community or become irrelevant in the home buying or selling process.
