"lose the sales pitch" This is too funny! Social media is like being at a party or networking event online. Walking around pitching everyone is a great way to not make any friends. Remember, people do business with those whom they like and trust. Bryan Ellis’s last blog post: Homes Are Selling More Briskly… And It’s “Bad” News

I agree with you about the avatars especially. I agree with this whole post, but I wanted to point that out in particular. I am usually not as initially interested in any profile that is obviously about branding or overtly promotional. The social media world is hyper-sensitive to commercialization, and professionals like myself need to always leave their sales pitch at home when they network online. Trust me, it’s way more effective to NOT sell anything. You build a much stronger base that way. Guess what…these people are still customers, and they’re going to be spending their money…but they’re NOT going to spend it with you if they don’t like you

great stuff, i think that this is a really good way to build your profile, you can put all your sales info on the main page but it is important online to have a human aspect it really makes a difference.

I appreciate the new series of posts you are doing on using social media. With so many opinions out there, it is hard to know what to listen to. You guys have proven yourselves time after time with Biggerpockets, so I’ll assume you know what you’re talking about when it comes to SM.
