Q: What are you doing professionally to distinguish yourself from others?
Being a CRS and letting others know about it. There is no better time than now to promote the designations you have. A lot of agents have trimmed back on expenses by not paying dues. Use [your Designation] to your advantage.

I belong to a group called Cyber Professionals. We meet twice a year and exchange ideas on the latest and greatest in the business of real estate. Great group, great ideas.

I’ve been doing a weekly real estate radio talk show for nearly 20 years on a local station … it totally separates me from the pack. Our local newspaper offered me a real estate column, which appears in the local Sunday paper. I get a whole page and have been having fun sharpening my old journalism skills learned at college eons ago!
