Chad Fabry Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 I use Linked-In and have linked to a handful of people that I really like and/or admire. I'm also linked to a few that happened by mistake and to one or two, for whom I admit, I didn't have the resolve to say "I don't know you that well and we shouldn't be linked at all". One of the advantages of Linked In is I can keep track of who's who in my little world. One of the ways of keeping track is I have access to a few blogs that I otherwise might have missed. I read 'em. For the most part I like the things people say and occasionally I learn from them. One of our own has done a very nice job writing his blog and I'm posting it here so that a new person or two might benefit from the low key promotion style. It proves the person behind the website and also establishes an intellect. If I was looking for a home inspector Brad's blog would influence my choice. The keys to a successful blog campaign are: have something meaningful to say know how to say it From the home of Canada geese (not Canadian geese) Manor on manors Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neal Lewis Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Yeah, Brad seems to be busy in the Blog department. He also has his own inspection group on Facebook. He seems to be in tune with the title of this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Manor Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 Thanks for the kind words guys! Had I known anyone would read that blog I would have put some more effort into it. As it is, it's simply the barely coherent ramblings of a guy with too much time on his hands. [] -Brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottpat Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 I booked an inspection today from my Facebook page. Surprised the heck out of me, I never gave much thought on the marketing aspect of Facebook. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brad Manor Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 I had booked an inspection today from my Facebook page. Surprised the heck out of me, I never gave much thought on the marketing aspect of Facebook. I've probably done 5 inspections this year that were the direct result of Facebook. In this market, I'll take work where I can get it. -Brad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bain Posted March 12, 2009 Report Share Posted March 12, 2009 I've gotten a couple of gigs recently from Facebook, as well. They were sort of indirect referrals, but having a presence reminds peeps of what I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
