Online auctions started the whole “I can sell my stuff on my own” craze. Now, with so many Social websites out there offering access for free, many people are doing the work on their own. However, in a “cold market” a person who must sell their property gets the best results when they put forth this effort along with working with a real estate agent. But that is only if they have to sell the property.

If they can afford to sit on it, that is when the Social website / auction idea really it prime.

Thanks for your comments on our post. It was designed to add a bit of fun to all of the stress people are having. I hope you got that with the celebrity pics, free pizza/starbucks/etc.

I do think that many of the tools, including social networks, video/photo sites and others will be part of standard marketing in the future. As for auctions, that was probably the one serious suggestion I was actually making.

As for your suggestions in response to ours, those are very reasonable and good ideas, but those are the things EVERYONE uses nowadays anyway, right? People need to start thinking out of the box a bit to stand out. That was all I was getting at. Hope you at least enjoyed the post.
