Keep Telling Yourself You Don't Have Time to Blog

Saturday October 25, 2008
You don't have time to blog. - It really is a pain to talk to a large potential client base about local market demographics.

Blog content takes too much time. - Gathering statistics for buyer and seller prospects and putting them online is a big time investment, and you have to get that ad written for the newspaper.

Blogging keeps you from networking locally. - There just aren't enough hours in the day to write blog posts for thousands to read when you're at a meeting shaking 50 hands.

How can you blog when you're managing email drip campaigns? - It takes a lot of work to dream up emails that will still be interesting a year from now ... no time to blog.

You're taking a seminar on lead generation with postcards. - The seminar, postcard stock selection, text development and learning mailing rules don't leave time for writing blog posts.

Blogging, you're kidding! - You're drafting a direct mail letter to your farm about your designations and certifications ... where's time to blog?

You hang in there with all of these activities that made the old-timers successful. Don't waiver, because it does take time to blog. Thanks to Jim over at The Real Estate Tomato for inspiration this morning.
