Dale Chumbley – How To Use Facebook To Build Your Real Estate Sphere of Influence Business – Productivity Nugget #126

Written by darin in Productivity Nugget, facebook, real estate coaching, social media

I was hosting the social media breakout sessions at BuzzRE Portland and Dale Chumbley of 365 Things To Do In Vancouver, WA was the first speaker. I grabbed Dale to do a Productivity Nugget right before he started his presentation.

Dale is becoming famous for his 365 Things Facebook page but was talking to the BuzzRE group about how he uses his personal  profile to grow his sphere of influence real estate business.

Using Facebook For Sphere Of Influence Real Estate Business

Dale joined me a couple months ago for my  Virtual BarCamp presentation when I shared my 1-2-1 Business Development Formula. So it was good to get together with him again and to hear his perspective on social media, facebook, and real estate.

Some of my take aways from Dale’s BuzzRE session”

Facebook Real Estate Don’ts

Don’t just promote your listings

Don’t just talk about real estate

Don’t just ask for referrals

Facebook Real Estate Do’s

Dale uses video to wish people happy birthday

He uses pictures to share about his real estate activity

Connect with people on chat

and…..

BE YOURSELF

How are you using facebook to connect with your sphere of influence?

    One of the best sessions of the day by far. Dale understands community building. Community will fall on their swords for you; audience will watch you fall.
