Real
estate, in general. The business of real estate, in particular.
Joe
Zlomek's Docket (below the photo) is a collection of his occasional observations on the real
estate industry in general, and on the business of real estate in particular.
Zlomek's specific expertise is in marketing, and much of his writing focuses on
the hows and whys of creating and maintaining persistent and consistent
contact with prospects and clients.
In addition, his blog on the news affecting real estate – titled "Another
Day, Another Dollar" – can be found at Bloglines,
or by clicking on the "Blog" link above. Zlomek also embeds real
estate-related news video feeds from the Voxant
Newsroom on this page.
Joe also writes regularly
on non-real estate topics at his second website, Wordwrks.com.
