1) Real World Connections
Surprisingly, lots of my Twitter connections have turned into real world connections. I regularly speak to lots of folks via text and phone, and
some are becoming genuine friends. I share my identity once I realize we will have a “beyond Twitter” relationship, and so far everyone's been amazing about keeping the anon thing private. We often find we have friends in common, etc.
2)Positive Impact the Tweets seem to be having
Sure, I get the occasional negative DM etc, but the vast majority of folks that have reached out have been incredibly kind and have shared that they really enjoy the account – love this!
3)Learning a ton each day

3)Learning a ton each day
When you’re
coming up on 20 years in the industry, you’re not learning as many new things as you want to, especially when you have the same circle of industry peers. I have learned so much from the folks on Twitter, and continue to do so each day.
4)Ability to get specific questions answered in real-time
The fact I can send a Tweet and get immediate expert feedback on insurance, loans, etc. is incredible beyond words. Powerful stuff right there.
5)Conversations with folks all over the world
Suddenly being in contact

5)Conversations with folks all over the world
Suddenly being in contact
with great folks from all the world really makes the planet feel smaller. Whether I head to Hawaii, Kentucky, Japan, Canada, Paris, Saudi Arabia, etc – it will feel a bit more like home than it otherwise would. I know there are some great folks I could grab coffee with in so
many towns now.
6)Writing!
I’ve always loved writing, and you don’t write too much beyond emails/letters when you’re in real estate. You don’t use most of the writing skills you did in college, and Twitter sharpens your writing and critical thinking skills, and fast.

7)I love this!
I look forward to my time on Twitter each day, and it’s been extremely fulfilling so far. If that changes down the road, or I can't run the real estate portfolio at the same level, I will divide my time accordingly, but so far so good!
