Twenty-One in a Million

Finally! I have something to talk about! And you'll soon be callng me Braggy Braggerson for it... The million or so realtors in this country received an email several months ago about some of the marketing they're doing to promote their real estate businesses. I sent in a brief blurb about blogging. Say that real fast five times. Brief blurb about blogging. Brief blurb about blogging. Brief blurb about blogging.

So today I get an email from a lender I know from Smyrna saying, "Dude! Saw you in the realtor magazine!" (well, close enough to what he said). I think girls/women need a cool word like "Dude!" I know we sometimes say "Bitch!" which can be either a huge compliment or devastating, depending on how it's used. Actually only two of my friends have ever said that to me when I've taken it as a compliment. Ivy and my college pal Juls who now lives outside of New Orleans.

But I digress. So I get this email from a lender who pointed it out to me. The funny part is that when I went to see the article (or a paragraph at the bottom of a long article), they used my blurb and the Smyrna blog. It cracked me up! And my congrats to the authors at This is Smyrna for making a national magazine! Dudes! Way to go! Haha!

Here's the link. Scroll down ... way down ... it's the third idea from the bottom. But hey! Out of a million realtors in this country, I'm kind of tickled to see it in at all! And one more update since the article - I do have clients now as a direct result of blogging! I think it's because as you get to know people online, you learn what they're made up of, including character, honesty, trust, etc.

Remember: Skate for the Children (Two) is Thursday, October 26th from 6:30 - 9:00 p.m. Proceeds go to Christmas for the Children.
