Facebook Profiles vs. Facebook Pages vs. Facebook Groups webinar

Some interesting data was gathered during a live InmanNext webinar, the full recording of which is below.

Real estate Facebook stats

It’s great to see so many Realtors closing real business from social media. There is certainly hope for the other 62 percent as well — thus the class!

Listen closely to my “five plus five plus five” strategy — I cover it at the end of the profile section. The feedback has been tremendous.

Also, when you start a group, like the one I recommend, let me know so I can check it out!

Enjoy the recording, and if you have any questions you can leave them in the comments section below.
