Google Analytics In Real Life – Online Checkout On Wednesday I attended the Calgary Real Estate Board Annual Forecast Breakfast. It’s a terrific annual event which brings out all the professional realtors for a day of interacting and learning.
I always pick up some great info at this event … and this year I will work a bit harder at understanding Search Engine Optimization. Apparently we should be using Google Analytics to assist us in this.

… I was just doing some searching … and found this hilarious video … on the customer experience.

Finally a Sunny Weekend!

METRO STATS UPDATE (June 1 – 9, 2010)

Just listed a great 1 bedroom condo in Windsor Park.

Since I love being a star in movies … and no one else wants me in their movies … I made my own.

Please take a moment to view … and let me know if you know of anyone who is looking for this type of condo.

206, 315 50 Ave SW Windsor Park, SW Calgary

Thank you.

Recently , I’ve been considering the spelling of my name. Way to many people think my name is pronounced Byron … but it is pronounced Brian. It’s really screwed up … because it’s spelled Bryon.

I’m not sure why my parents did this to me.  I still love ’em … even though since grade 1 … on the 1st day of school the teacher called me Byron … and all the kids laughed … and called me this until about November.  This happens less frequently since high school … but still happens at least every three or four years.  (I’m really glad I’m not still in school. That sucked.)

I like my last name … and will work on branding it. Howard is cool. Bryon is alright. I hate Byron. I’m not fancy about Brian.

I love selling Calgary real estate … and want it to be easy for people to recognize me … and find me.  I work with ReMax … which is a powerful brand and has 37% of the market share in Calgary. I want my personal brand to match ReMax … and will ALWAYS use the ReMax logo along with this brand concept.

Below are some concepts that my good friend Greg Kolodziejzyk came up with.

I told Greg that I wanted to copy Greg Hamre’s logo. (See below the header from The Hamre Team’s website.) I met Greg Hamre and his bro at a ReMax conference in Banff in November. He’s a super cool guy. He and his family sell Real Estate in Ottawa. http://www.weknowottawa.com  (I hope he doesn’t mind. I’ll have to remember to ask him.)

I’m leaning towards the logo on the top right corner. If you have any thoughts on this … you could post below – or send me an email.
