Roosevelt

“The Only Thing we have to Fear, is Fear Itself”

The above is a quote taken direct from Franklin Delano Roosevelt during his Inaugural address upon his election in 1932.

Of course the US (world) were in the throws of the Great Depression and he was trying to get his country fired up for the next 4 years of his presidency.

Ok so why did I start off with a quote of this caliber? Well…the biggest obstacle I think a lot of REALTORS® have to overcome when it comes to getting involved with Social Media is Fear.

Fear of the unknown…”What if no one “friends” me on Facebook?!” or “What if no one follows me on Twitter?” or even “Who is going to watch my Videos?!” These are all statements of fear.

People do not want to take action because they fear the unknown, and as a result it is holding them back from increasing their connections, relationships and overall their business.

Below I have interviewed one of Canada’s premier Social Media advocates and a lady with a Big reach…Teri Conrad Lansing. Teri is a REALTOR®, and good friend and also the Senior Social Strategist with Socialized.

We talked a lot in this video about how to overcome those obstacles stated above and Teri even shared with us 3 ways in how to get started in the social media/real estate space.
