I am Jeff

I very rarely participate in the whole “Follow Friday” thing on Twitter. I think it’s kind of pointless really…

So, it’s strictly a coincidence that today is Friday, and I’m telling you to follow these select individuals on Twitter: @DaleChumbley, @DarinPersinger and @1000wattMarc.

The thing is, I’m telling you to do more than just follow these 3 guys. I want you to actually LISTEN to them too.

Here’s why:

Dale Chumbley – Yeah, he’s kinda hot right now. One of the founding figures of the whole “365 Things To Do in…” phenomena that seemed to be sweeping the nation recently. Also one of the few people doing it for the right reasons, and reaping the rewards that come along with that. He’s creative, artistic, and knows how to put it all to good use. Plus he’s seriously one of the nicest guys I think I’ve ever met.

Darin Persinger – There are a million and one Real Estate “coaches” and marketing “experts” out there today. Everyone wants to tell you what you should be doing to get more business. Very few of those people have experience in our industry, and if they do, it’s usually pretty limited. Then there’s this guy. An extensive background in Real Estate sales, coaching, training, speaking. Although he’s not as nice a guy as Dale, he too knows his shit. Just kidding, Darin’s a great guy too! I think it’s the accent that throws me off a little.

Marc Davison – There are only a handful of people in the Real Estate industry that I would say would be a privilege for me to be spend some time with. Marc is one of those people. Lucky for me, I was privileged enough to spend a couple hours with him last week for a lunch while he’s here visiting Portland. Although we said we wouldn’t talk business, we did. When you love the business you’re in, it’s very hard not to talk about it. Especially when you’re around someone with the same thoughts and values on how things should be. Marc’s company, 1000watt Consulting, has helped some of the largest brand names in the business get where they are today. That’s no coincidence.

So, there you have it. The 3 people floating around out there in the world that I suggest you follow, and listen closely to what they have to say. It’s good stuff.
