Editor's Notes
- #2: Today I hope to share with you not just the Google Tools – but a few ways in which you can use those tools to make your real estate day better.
- #6: Chrome offers a ton of extensions that work with the tools you already use.
- #11: If you are setting up labels for your deals – you can hide them when the deal is over. Hiding the label does not delete the emails tagged with that label.
- #12: Check out these properties … Please review the attached docs …Congratulations! They signed, now the real work begins …
- #15: Great for remembering conference calls, meetings and all of your appointments. You can set up a default reminder scheme …
- #16: Share with a team member, your assistant, your office admin or even just the person covering for you when you are away.
