Are you getting frustrated that no one is commenting on your Facebook posts? I recommend that about one-third of your posts be about business, while another one-third should be personal, with a short post (and pictures) about what you have been up to lately. And finally, one-third should be fun—such as asking personal questions that you’d like your friends, real estate agents, family and fans to answer.
Here are six short and sweet questions you can post on Facebook. It helps you to get to know your friends, clients and agents on a more personal level—and is asked in such a way to start a conversation not only with you, but also with each other.
• What’s was your nickname or secret name that people called you when you were a kid?
• What is the name of your pet and what kind of pet do you own?
• What was the street address that you lived on when you were a kid?
• What’s your favorite scent?
• What’s your favorite movie and why?
• What do you collect as a hobby?
I hope these questions help you think of others that you could ask! Oh, and by the way, their answers are great to include in your database notes. When you talk them again, you’ll have a way to connect on a more personal level.
