Default Re: Who has success using facebook and myspace for lead generation?

Facebook has brought me 8 listings this year. I just joined Facebook about 4 or 5 months ago. It's not like random strangers are going to find you on Facebook and get in touch with you to list their home. The proper way to use Facebook is to get touch base with people you haven't talked to in a long time. Naturally they will ask what you are doing in life and then take it from there. It has been great for putting me back in touch with old high school and college friends. Most didn't know I was in Real Estate now they do. There is also a function on Facebook where you can "share a link" with someone when you communicate with them. That leaves a link for everybody that communicates with that person to see "your website."

Facebook takes 4-5 months to get it where you have built a decent amount of friends. After awhile it starts to snowball.
