if you’ve been on this here interweb for more than a few weeks you quickly get a grip that domain names are key for the success of your website – be it organic traffic, branding, or just plain ease of memory.

now, to say i’m a collector of domain names may be putting it mildly. i’m an idea guy and when i get a good one i snatch up a related domain. due to time constraints, though, i don’t always get the chance to run with the idea (or domain)…

so, it’s time i open up my vault and let you and others run these domain names at their full potential. check em out because one of these may be your next traffic magnet.

if you see one you like, let me know…

“what the… ?” is pretty much the response people have when they take a look at my feet. no, i don’t have Hobbit toes or anything freaky like that but…

i’ve gotten into barefoot running which, as you might have guessed, involves running without shoes.

you may be wondering what this has to do with email marketing but read on and everything will be revealed…

Larry Flynt, publisher of Hustler magazine, came out of left-field and took center-stage during the bank bailout brouhaha. He declared that the porn industry, like the banks, needed bailout money to keep operating.

Brilliant move to leverage the national conversation about the bailouts and bring his business into the main conversation.

Over the past week the largest conversation, at least in the tech world, has been about the Apple iPod. Heck, there’s a whole machine behind making this gizmo the main conversation. A smart guerrilla would make sure their business uses some of that noise to their own benefit…

Last week something happened in real estate that hadn’t happened before…

A whole bunch of generous and caring speakers, trainers, and other experts participated in a 6 hour web-a-thon to benefit earthquake victims in Haiti.

No person involved in the call made a single cent, they simply volunteered their time and knowledge believing listeners would get enormous value and make a donation to a charity.

Here’s just a sample of what was shred during the full 6 hours:

• How write a $10,000 blog post
• Risk v. Reward. Realtor Foreclosue Pitfalls
• Distressed Agents: Settling Your Own Debt
• 65 Million in Sales… How to list 500 homes a Year
• 6 Figure Referral Business using Strategic Partners
• Social Media. The Good, The Bad, The Ugly

I think you’ll find some serious value in what’s shared, and i hope you join all the other agents helping Haiti.

Below is an email I recently sent to the fine folks who have joined HomeStomper’s email list. I put it together in a moment of inspiration and didn’t really consider posting it to the blog but it was incredibly well recieved… even by folks who were forwarded the email by caring StomperAgents. So, here it is… I hope you enjoy as much as everyone else has.

After speaking with a few folks after they’d watched yesterday’s marketing video we got to talking about how to really use benefit driven marketing to attract more people.

I then sat down to record this video for you. In it I show you a monkey-stoopid simple method you can use to distill the ultimate benefit out of every service/product(listing) feature.

Don’t write this off as “worthless” because it’s simple and free. You can’t beat it. Watch it below…

Sometimes video does a better job than an email which is why I recently recorded this video after a session with one of my coaching clients. The thing is, it turned out pretty damn good so I thought I’d share it with you here on the blog.

In this video I walk you through a very powerful marketing process that I follow every time I work on a new marketing campaign. Be sure to grab the PDF download, too…

Showing us they’re good for more than a vanilla latte Starbucks has provided a pretty savvy guerrilla marketing case study that activated their evangelists. Even tastier is that it’s a social media approach you can duplicate for your real estate business.

Most Realtors who advertise their blogs typically use Google AdWords or Facebook ads. However, as well as you may do on these channels you can get better results through a much different venue.
