The Humanizing of the Social Web

For my presentation I was asked to discuss “Rules for a Changing Game” and how social media and other influences will forever change the real estate industry. Thanks to a couple of highly influential people by the names of David Armano and Peter Kim I was able to put together the following presentation.

Word of Mouth Marketing in a Social Web

WOMM is still THE most respected and effective form of marketing available, but with the power of the web, could turn against you in a minute’s time.

About

Matthew Dollinger I would like to consider myself a real estate martyr, but I think that's a little drastic.


How I would like to position myself in the industry is somewhat of a "conduit" between agents/brokers and those continually innovating tomorrow's real estate model. I believe that Real Estate needs to ditch the mentality that it's "more than a business" and truly look to innovative companies, (regardless of industry), and learn from them. It's how we will grow and succeed in this marketplace.


I am constantly looking for new partners that share a passion for learning, innovating and implementing ideas. If you have a thought, idea, or would like to share, simply reach out to me.
