Delegating to a Real Estate Virtual Assistant doesn't have to be difficult or expensive! Welcome to Day Three of Outsourcing Ideas you can let your real estate VA handle for you! This is a quick and easy to read resource you can always come back to:)
Delegation Day Three
Problem: BLOGS: You need help writing them, need ideas about what to write about, need help getting through writer's block, and need help posting them consistently with some knowledge of SEO, keywords and links, and back links.
Solution: Have your VA set up Google Alerts for your Town, Community, Neighborhood or Farm to track excellent resources for your blogs and have them come to you AND your VA. Your VA can then sort relevant topics, links etc. and send them to you to keep the writer's juices flowing. If you need help writing the content a VA can help you get started and will make sure you have the basics of SEO included. Once finalized and proofed, your VA can post the blogs on Active Rain, and any outside blog you may have, as well as syndicate your links to your Social Networking sites. (More on that later!)
There's one good reason to delegate something to a Real Estate VA!
A real estate virtual assistant is like the missing piece of your business' puzzle. Having someone available to you to help you with the the 'small stuff' while you focus on the big picture - the things that will earn you the most income is key. Once you get that into place, you'll be growing your business faster than ever before.

I have subscribed and planning on reading the entire series. Thank you for the posts.
Hi Mark~ You are so kind for reading and commenting on all the post so far:) Thank you! and I hope you find them helpful. Have a great rest of the weekend!
Laura, I am very much enjoying your series and this one about delegating in the blogging area fits all of us here real well.
Laura - this is a great thread...I'm going to go back and read the first two "days".
My problemn with delegating is giving up my power to get things right like I do it. I guess I need to give that up huh?
Laura, excellent idea to have a google alert for your farm area. I have google alerts for my competition but having it for your farm area allows an agent to keep right on top of a particular area. Thanks for the e-mail. ;-)
Imagine how much Real Estate could be sold if Realtors were more open minded to International Real Estate - selling outside their area. And its so easy.....
Loved the ideas, as entrepreneurs, our jobs are not to do all the work by ourselves, it's by using personal assistants and through outsourcing, that you can definitely free up your time to pursue the most important money making aspects of your Real Estate business.
I always teach people they need to be ON their businesses, not IN them, doing all the tasks.
Great series.

This is great Laura! I'm loving how you're not only giving practical suggestions of what a real estate professional can utilize a Virtual Assistant's services for but also telling them exactly how to do it!

Hi Gary~ Yes, blogging and social media are becoming a great aspects of the business to work with a VA on..I never recommend completely turning it over, but often times the leg work comes in handy. Thanks for stopping by, I always appreciate it;)
Hi Christine~ Thanks for stopping, I always appreciate feedback frm other VA's:)
Hi Sonny~ Yes! It is often the most difficult thing to do..but starting small with more tasks that can be automated are always good to get started with.
Hi David~ :) I was thinking it would be good of me to set up the Omaha alerts for myself as well, and we can work together on those too:)
Hi Jeff~ You are so right!!! I'll be checking out your link as well, but thanks for the support!
Hi Renae! Thanks as always girlfriend...:)
Hi Laura- Great idea as usual! Keep it up.
Hi Laura, I'm subscribed and looking forward to the next 7 days :-) Great posts. Thanks!
