I SO wish I could take credit for this idea... But alas... someone else beat me to it and I suppose it's the soulful thing to do to acknowledge her brilliance... I read an article in one of my local neighborhood newspapers (the North Denver News) written by a Denver wedding officiant named Mauree...

A couple of weeks ago, I had the privilege of having coffee with one of my readers. We talked about this and that... and that and this... and then he casually mentioned that he had created a "mock" business card that he "wished he could use in real life." When he showed it to me, I was floored - ...

You wanna know the top search term that brings new surfers to my website? Okay, there are two. The first is "New agent announcement letter." The second is "Sample listing presentation." I offer a free sample listing presentation on my website if you join my VIP Lounge (that's free, too). Seems to...

I remember interviewing for my second listing back in 1997. The seller asked me this question: "Jennifer, I assume our house will sell quickly because it's so cute (it was), but if it doesn't sell right away, what will you do?" Hmmmmmmmm. Hell, I dunno. I was a green bean agent; I'd only had one...

Am I the only idiot on the planet who can turn a simple Christmas Card mailing project into a full-time job? My plan... send out Christmas cards to my local Denver SOI (sphere of influence) and toss in my hot-off-the-press Referral Directory magnet as an extra-special holiday gift for my friends ...

Okay, bear with me as I proudly share one of the best reviews I've read of my book. The reviewer, Tamara Dorris really captured the essence of what the book is about... and the message I intended to convey. THANKS Tamara! Oh, and she's interviewing me today at 11:00 Pacific/2:00 Eastern. Join us?...

I'm addicted to my Outlook Express. Been using it for, oh, probably ten years now. It was a real surprise to me to discover that other people DON'T use good old OE! To me Email = Outlook Express. Well, about a month ago, I started having problems sending messages. If you were communicating with m...

In my last blog, I mentioned that I refuse to work with agents (on a consulting basis) if their only explanation for their struggles is to blame the Other Guy. If someone isn't willing to first look in the mirror to find the solutions to their dilemma, I know I'll be of no use to them! But let's ...

While I don't advertise it, I do some one-on-one consulting for Very Special People. By VSP, I mean, people who buy into the Sell with Soul philosophy (yeah, I discriminate) and who are intelligent and self-aware enough to 1) be willing to play outside the box and forego traditional wisdom most o...
