Connect with Clients

From now on ask all clients if you may connect with them on facebook

Attempt to connect with past clients using your database and 'facebook search'

Do this tastefully!

What is a Fan Page?

Similar to a profile, but used for business

Good place for your best connections to show their support

Important to post fan page updates on a regular basis

Great for promoting events, announcing new listings, etc.

Leveraging Groups

Use 'facebook search' to find local Bloomington groups

Great way to reach out to new contacts, but can be time consuming

Be sure to join the Bloomington Real Estate group
