A Realtors Guide on What Not To Write on Social Media Sites

1. IF you don't want your mom to know, don't write it.

2. If it involves alcohol, you may want to think twice, especially if you are drinking right now.

3. If you were to say it and blush, DON'T WRITE IT!

4. If you are angry, hurt, disappointed, or otherwise prone to violent outburst, grab a pillow and scream. Do not vent your private emotions for the entire world to dissect. It doesn't not go away when you feel better, it is there forever.

5. You might not want to update your location 24/7. Would you really want complete strangers to know exactly where you are every minute of the day!?!

6. For heaven's sake don't vent about your client!!! Someone somewhere knows them and will be more than happy to tell them all about it.

7. I realize your dating life may be quite comical, scary, maybe even OSCAR worthy, yet maybe you should write a journal, and bury it somewhere deep, deep, deep in the ground instead of posting it every time your "status" changes.

8. And finally, your clients and prospective clients are paying attention, CLOSE attention. If you are serious about social media as a professional forum, think twice, possibly even three times,
about posting that fleeting feeling, momentary emotion, or "good times photo".

You will be oh so happy you did and so will your mother and/or children.
