Michael,

When all that latest and greatest comes around, we ask who is using it, and can they afford what we are selling...it would be like putting a high end jewelry store in a 7/11 store.  It has to make sense and reach the right people. Otherwise, it is a colossal waste of time.  A

We are using more Instagram for the younger people. Snapchat is used by one of our agents to communicate with friends, but never for business.

Facebook is for old people, snapchat is for young. I do not use it, my kids do. But if I need to download it to communicate with a client, i'll do it in a heartbeat. One of my clients recorded houses we were touring sharing them with his followers. We realtors can do it every time we preview a property, etc.

Yes, the younger generation loves snapchat and instagram. That is where they hangout. They also watch a lot of youtube and like Youtube Red. If that is your market, then that is where you need to be. 

I used Snapchat before I aquired this new company, I don't have time now. But IG, yes.

What's Snapchat? LOL

I have an agent in my office, big producer. She does not do any social media. Other agents always tell her that she needs to be doing social media. She always reply the following: "While you are on you ass doing Facebook on your laptop, I'm having lunch with YOUR client"

No; it's true the younger set likes Snapchat, but for business reasons you would want to keep a record of your conversations; Snapchat postings vanish right away.

Yes, a bit of Snap. Heavier into Instagram, Instagram stories, Twitter, Linkedin, Facebook, etc. All have given me business, so I make sure to be where my clients are, or could be.  And, defintely "market" my listings that way, thats my job!
