I have been following a discussion on Linked In titled “Linked In or Active Rain, which one is better?”

Just when I think I have it all figured out, a woman posted an article on that discussion that was great, but has left me even more confused!   http://tinyurl.com/Tools-To-Mng-Social-Networking

My head spins out of control when I look at all of my options!   I think blogging and social networking can really be a great tool, but does this keep us all from getting back to the basics?

I know it is a generational thing…and as I mentioned in an earlier post  I’m  just a middle aged broker in Parker, Colorado.  I just want to be hip!”

I know my business comes from meeting people face to face and getting involved with my community – but is that all going to change?  Maybe I don’t ever have to leave my office…I can just chat with clients and agents all day via Linked In, Twitter, FB, texting, emailing and the occasional phone call.

I know a sales person calling my office will NEVER get through and if they actually have the nerve to just show up unannounced – they are completely blacklisted unless I already have a relationship with them!

So, really…social networking is a way to be unobtrusive.  We just need to figure out a balance!
