Twitter Page

Out twitter page is coming along slower than the facebook page. We have 36 followers at the moment. Mostly been tweeting news articles related to real estate. Check it out here: RE/MAX's Twitter.

What I would love to see done on the twitter page is to tweet every time an agent has a new listing. That way someone can follow our page and find out in real time when there are new houses on the market. This would be perfect for someone house hunting in the area.

To do this, I would go need to add a step onto the "new listing procedure" that front desk workers go through when they add an agents new listing. I would just need to type up simple instructions such as this:

1. Go to www.twitter.com
2. Log onto our account remax440central password XXXXXXXX
3. Tweet the new listing by following this tweeting promt: Real Estate Agent John Smith has a new listing in Souderton www.urlhere.com #realestate.
4. Post the tweet
5. Sign out of twitter

This idea was given to me by Grove City Marketing Professor Dr. Powell and think it would be an awesome tool if I can get it implemented. I've emailed the owner of our RE/MAX about it but haven't heard back yet. He's a very busy man! I'll have to wait until we have another meeting and see if I can bring up the idea then.
