Markets are Conversations • "A powerful global
conversation has begun.

getting smarter—and getting
smarter faster than most
companies.”

Creation Versus Curation
I develop content almost
exclusively for my blog readers,
and not for search engines, based
on their wide interests in real
estate and local happenings. – Jay
Thompson
My content is about providing a
window to my personality, hopefully
this window attracts clients that relate
to me and I can relate to.
- Gary Chambers

words, photos & videos) and look for
opportunities to move those
relationships offline- Dale Chumbley
A resource for local community
activities, involvement and interest.
