There are hundreds of Facebook groups for Realtors and finding a good one can be a challenge. In this episode we share tips for choosing and participating in a Facebook group and give you the list of do’s and don’ts while you are there. Facebook groups can easily go wrong sucking up your time and leaving a negative impact on your mindset. We share why we took three years to start our own group and what rules and vibe we had to implement to make it work for us. As we make changes in our lives and businesses for the new year, it’s a perfect time to dive deeper into what culture you are consuming, including Facebook groups. And if you are looking for some real life examples of what happens in these groups we read through some posts and comments and give our own commentary!
