Hey Hey Angie – you made it to the 50 PARTY 😉

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:11:40):

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:11:46):

hey Angie

AudelizPerez says to  (18:11:49):

yeah! I had to download firefox. long story for my late arrival

AudelizPerez says to  (18:11:52):

CHRIS!

NyssaSmith says to  (18:11:55):

h1 tag – float the text over the image.  Is that what he said?

RealTechGuy says (18:12:07):

I think so Nyssa

AudelizPerez says to  (18:12:10):

You’re back from Conference row!

NyssaSmith says to  (18:12:23):

P – A – R – T – Y

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:12:23):

h1 h2 permalinks all confuse me big time so I can imagine agents

RealTechGuy says (18:12:22):

I’m considering having transcripts done for the show – would that be helpful?

RealTechGuy says (18:12:44):

That’s why I use WP – makes that a lot easier to manage.

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:13:58):

100% the truth

RealTechGuy says (18:13:57):

We talk more about this in the bonus at the end

RealTechGuy says (18:14:16):

HAAAA Just what you said TSA

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:14:23):

If you do 100 push ups a day…

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:14:25):

RealTechGuy says (18:15:23):

Here comes the formula

RealTechGuy says (18:15:35):

NyssaSmith says to  (18:17:17):

LOL TSA!

VictoriaJacobs says to  (18:17:28):

TSA, yes you do why do you think I am following you

RealTechGuy says (18:17:34):

Susie Blackmon says to  (18:17:44):

Dummies like a fox.

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:17:48):

RealTechGuy says (18:18:23):

You got all markets covered.  I may have a few of each.

NyssaSmith says to  (18:19:26):

Content

RealTechGuy says (18:19:52):

Content is King

RealTechGuy says (18:20:02):

it’s the key to inbound marketing.

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:20:23):

Content leads to context which leads to trust which leads to sales

RealTechGuy says (18:20:24):

been doing that with coaching students lately

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:20:30):

most won’t even do the content piece

NyssaSmith says to  (18:20:31):

Good advice!

NyssaSmith says to  (18:20:47):

Video interview…Hmmm…I’m on it!  🙂

RealTechGuy says (18:20:54):

DAMN TSA —-> I’ve been thinking about that and you nailed it in 12 words

RealTechGuy says (18:21:00):

“Tweet Worthy”

NyssaSmith says to  (18:21:27):

Oh yea!  Love it: Tech Savvy Agent: Content leads to context which leads to trust which leads to sales

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:21:46):

summitareahomes says to  (18:22:05):

Hey Angie!

AudelizPerez says to  (18:22:16):

HELLO!

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:22:47):

http://www.drewburks.com/

RealTechGuy says (18:23:22):

KLOUT 😉

RealTechGuy says (18:23:32):

uh oh

RealTechGuy says (18:23:54):

KLOUT = BS? I think they fixed it since then

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:24:04):

just sayin 70 Klout

RealTechGuy says (18:24:07):

LOL

NyssaSmith says to  (18:24:10):

Their both important IMHO (twitter/facebook)

RealTechGuy says (18:24:19):

I rock the FB stats on klout

RealTechGuy says (18:24:32):

special bonus

AudelizPerez says to  (18:24:35):

KLOUT matters b2b not so much b2c. just my opinion.

NyssaSmith says to  (18:24:38):

Oh yea oh yea RTG!!!

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:24:41):

HootSuite sort by Klout is pure gold

RealTechGuy says (18:24:41):

UH OH

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:24:52):

I disagree Angie

AudelizPerez says to  (18:25:06):

I knew you would chris

RealTechGuy says (18:25:17):

OH CRAP – guss I’ll have to fix that later

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:25:23):

when you look for hashtags in your market and then sort by Klout you can instantly find the c’s that matter

VictoriaJacobs says to  (18:25:32):

TSA your tidbits are pure gold, frig I am siging up today for hoot sutie Suzanne uses something else but I am going to check it out for myself

JohnZiemba says to  (18:25:34):

Im with Angie on this one Chris

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:25:59):

Most people think things don’t work that they don’t truly understand

RealTechGuy says (18:26:07):

That matter in this space

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:26:09):

Jon now I lost audio

RealTechGuy says (18:26:17):

Yeah, I ended the show

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:26:27):

gotcha

RealTechGuy says (18:26:29):

The recording got screwed up so I’ll fix it later on the podcast

VictoriaJacobs says to  (18:26:33):

thats it 30 min?

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:26:36):

great stuff from Mr Drew Burks

RealTechGuy says (18:26:40):

short and sweet

AudelizPerez says to  (18:26:46):

didn’t you say 70% of tweets go unread?

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:27:09):

exactly so why interact with all the lame people on Twitter

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:27:14):

you are making the case for me

AudelizPerez says to  (18:27:18):

I don’t know Chris, I will let you know if Klout gets me the listing on my listing appointment

RealTechGuy says (18:27:19):

Klout isn’t just twitter stats – it shows how your network uses your contetn, doesnt it?

NyssaSmith says to  (18:27:20):

So no audio now.

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:27:28):

by using Klout you pinpoint the people who might actually help you make money

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:27:43):

Again not the point Angie

NyssaSmith says to  (18:27:47):

Great call Jonathan!  Thank you!  You rocked the HOUSE!

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:27:48):

you are looking at it wrong

AudelizPerez says to  (18:28:00):

I am looking at it the agent way

JohnZiemba says to  (18:28:02):

Im going to try that on the next listing appointment.  I have a klout score of 58 what does the other 3 agents have

RealTechGuy says (18:28:07):

There’s a GAP – angie has agent perspective on this —- it’s different from what you and I do Chris

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:28:25):

guys you are thinking about YOUR klout score

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:28:30):

which I agree is meaningless

ChristineGarber says to  (18:28:40):

thanks for the the help,.. love all the tips, bye

AudelizPerez says to  (18:28:49):

yes, good tips

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:28:52):

but what if you could eliminate all the time it would normally take to find influencers in your market?

summitareahomes says to  (18:28:53):

Great content!!

RealTechGuy says (18:29:07):

Thanks for tuning in CG

RealTechGuy says (18:29:16):

Glad you liked it Summit

NyssaSmith says to  (18:29:20):

My Klout score is a 32… Is that good?  Or bad?  Anyone know?

JohnZiemba says to  (18:29:25):

Chris, have you done a post on how to find the influencers in your market

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:29:39):

Meaningless Nyssa

RealTechGuy says (18:29:39):

I agree the klout thing is priceless – when I saw that I bought an account

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:29:42):

just be real

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:29:52):

yes it was in the Queue

JohnZiemba says to  (18:29:53):

Nyssa, its not how big the score is, its how you work with the people you influence

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:30:05):

http://techsavvyagent.com/home-page-slider/the-queue-book-giveaway-send-out-cards-owle-sort-by-klout/

RealTechGuy says (18:30:09):

I think the KLOUT advantage is for us seeking oppertunities not so much them finding us

NyssaSmith says to  (18:30:11):

Got it!  Thanks!

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:30:12):

last clip

RealTechGuy says (18:30:36):

John is on the money

NyssaSmith says to  (18:30:54):

Thanks for the link TSA

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:31:03):

exactly listen don’t talk

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:31:09):

just like everything else in social

summitareahomes says to  (18:31:12):

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:31:15):

here is a great Klout chat

RealTechGuy says (18:31:17):

Just like everything else in LIFE

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:31:30):

http://www.blogtalkradio.com/raisethebar/2010/11/30/rtb-on-the-radio-dale-chumbley-optimization-of-fac

JohnZiemba says to  (18:31:55):

I think the problem I have, is I talk shop on twitter and havent used it to find anyone within 20 miles of where I am at

AudelizPerez says to  (18:32:07):

klout would be = page rank then, those are the people to follow, the one with credibility and ability to influence

RealTechGuy says (18:32:21):

Guess what – I was able to capture this whole chat – now I’ll post it under the podcast episode as show notes 😉

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:32:40):

exactly Angie

Tech Savvy Agent says to  (18:32:50):

user error John

JohnZiemba says to  (18:33:25):
