Can’t We All Get Along: I Think People Have Lost Their Minds
The current economy seems to have given people permission to lose all common sense. Especially in the realm of New Homes Sales. Apparently as long as you site “The economy” and the current state of the housing industry, you should be able to do anything you like. New rules seem to dictate that you should be able to ask new homes sales agents to show you property at all hours of the day or night…
Read MoreYoutube Reality Check: No Limits, Watch Nick Vujicic
Youtube is crowded with entertaining mindless videos of cats caught on ceiling fans, manatees bumping into aquarium glass, and giant slides that will land you in a kiddie pool of water…but every once in a while you come across a gem that brings tears to your eyes and teaches you real life lessons. This is why social media can have such an amazing impact on our lives. I used to teach kids team building, leadership…
Read MoreAre Jobs in Sailing And Real Estate Both 24 Hours A Day?
Why is it so difficult at times for buyer’s agents and new home sales agents to get on the same page? We all share a common goal, to help someone find their dream home. Doesn’t that makes us on the same team? Yet at times it’s like we are in two completely different professions. As an Online Sales Consultant for a new homes builder I deal with many different people all over the world on…
Read MoreFacebook Vacation Tip: Diving in the Turks and Caicos
New Media and incredible vacations… I never would have thought they’d have much in common until recently. When the Aggressor Fleet hit 1000 fans on facebook they offered a special $1000 trip on the Turks and Caicos Aggressor. For a diver, a trip on any of Aggressor’s 12 luxury liveaboard dive boats is probably on the short list of trips we’d love to take. So when they offered an amazing deal of more than 50%…
Read MoreSocial Media, Scuba Diving, Fan Page, Fantastic Vacation!
Social media, scuba diving, facebook fan page, Aggressor, what do all these have in common? They are the elements that make up my next great vacation…and my dream job! During my diving days, I worked for a liveaboard dive boat called the Cayman Aggressor. Recently, while exploring job possibilities I did some preliminary chatting with a couple of liveaboard dive companies about doing their internet sales. I believe that my job as an online sales…
Read MoreStep Away From The iPhone: You Might Find Yourself Up On A Reef…Or Worse
Step away from the iphone…or any other gadget that distracts you while driving a car. We’ve become such a tech savvy society that many feel the need to be connected at all times, it’s like we need facebook and twitter to be intravenously fed into our veins otherwise we feel disconnected from our peeps. Or at least that’s how it seems when you’re out driving on the road. You look left, someone is on their…
Read MoreCan You Have A Debate in 140 Characters?
After my last post about debates on facebook, I decided to see if it was possible to have a debate in 140 Characters. The other day my cousin posted a ridiculous video in his facebook status update which sparked an intense debate between myself and one of his friends about the health care system. As usual my cousin posted something controversial but didn’t, himself debate the issue. Sadly I don’t believe it’s because he’s above…
Read MoreDebates on Facebook: Like An American Jew Sitting Next to Two Arabs in an Old City Jerusalem Pizza Parlor
In social media, interacting though facebook, twitter and the like can be a dialogue. I see people updating most often with the literal, “what they are doing.” (I do this as well) But less often status updates express thoughts, ideas and beliefs. It’s as if for the most part no one wants to rock the boat and put something up that “friends” or “followers” might not find agreeable. And when we do post something controversial…
