As Facebook grows in popularity we are seeing more and more agents struggle in how to present themselves in their profiles to maintain both personal relationships and professional goals. Like Dale’s fan page, one of our clients Dawn Thomas created a fan page for the Silicon Valleyhttp://www.facebook.com/SiliconValley365. This is the type of strategy that is exciting to see.
