Technology plays a larger role every day in business for me. We have a lot of foreign
clients and domestic clients so the ability to get deals done, to exchange information
quickly, easily; whether it be through Corcoran's website, through using Skype, Facebook, any
of those things. And we want to actually bring technology into a bigger role in our business
as role. Bernice Leventhal and I, who is my partner at the Village office, we created
a Facebook page called the Leventhal Thompson team. And what we do there is we talk about
real estate obviously in New York but also economic issues, political issues going on
in the country or in the city. We started something called Motivational Mondays because
we think the day gets a bad rap and it's just tough to get motivated on a Monday. So I think
it helps us even I think more so than people that read it. So the idea is to really stay
on top of things since the world really does move at such a quick pace now. To be able
to get that out and to leverage Corcoran's infrastructure, what they've created for us
with the YouTube channel, with the Facebook page, it's been really a boon to getting people
to our properties, to advertising, it really helps our sellers and I think our buyers as
well with information.
