Crawling to walk

I logged on several times and subsequently interupted several times to understand it is best to blog while you can focus, at least until you get comfortable with it. So there is my intial contribution. I will research for substance in the blogs to follow.

Create a pdf for any printable file

Have you ever created a document in Microsoft Word that you wanted to send to someone but you didn't want them to be able to edit it? With CutePDF you can convert any printable document into a pdf file.

I recently received a home inspection report that was saved as a word document. I questioned the home inspector and asked if he realized that anyone can modify the report that he sent out. If he converted the file to a pdf it would be protected and nobody would be able to modify or alter his report. It was something that he had never thought about.

CutePDF is a free shareware download that I use all the time. It saves the CutePDF software as one of your printers. When you choose the printer to send the file to you can select CutePDF and it will ask you where you want to save the file. It then converts your file and saves it as a PDF.

Give it a try...

Do You Really Understand The Power Of The Net?

Have you really thought about how powerful the Internet is? I do I think about it everyday. While some might accuse me of being techie..it has nothing to do with being a techie..it has everything to do with being smart...efficient..prepared and economical!

Think about it..
What other tool can you use that has the ability to reach billions with a few keystrokes..with just words..pictures and a list price?

How many publications do you advertise in and it cost you nothing?

What works for you 24 hours every single day ?

It's The World Wide Internet!

Agents who are willing to embrace the net will be agents of the future..meaning staying in the real estate business for the long haul.

If you feel you are questioning whether what I am saying is true..read it for yourself and it isn't a NAR survey..it's much bigger...and packed with vital information. So vital it will convince you that there is power on the net!
Read it here>>>>>>>yahoo's real estate white pages!

After reading this..you might have a whole new understanding and I hope to see you on google!

Free Service to Replace JOTT

I’m sure that most of you are familiar with jott.com, the service that lets you send reminders from your cell phone while you’re on the go. It’s a great service that many of us got to know, love and depend on as a tool for our hectic business.

If you’ve been using jott then you know they have recently started charging for what we have enjoyed as a free service for quite some time. Keeping my money in my pocket is more important than ever right now, so I decided to check out my options.

The search began and I finally found my replacement for jott. It’s called Dial2Do. You can text, get the weather report, email and for those of you that don’t have a smart phone you can even listen to your email. The computer voice is a bit annoying but if you’re in a pinch it will come in handy. And for the world traveler it even has a translation service.

You can upload your contacts from several different contact management applications and add/remove services as needed.

It may not offer all the options we had with jott, but it does have a few extras you might enjoy!

Go to www.Dial2Do.com and check out this great new tool, that’s FREE!!
