Facebook your Listings (the right way)

One of the first questions I get asked by an Agent who wants a Custom Facebook Business Page created is “Can you pull in my listings – here’s my IDX Feed”

The answer is No!

"Pretty Please?"

Still No.

Not because I don't want to. You see... Facebook does not like dynamic content in custom tabs and guess what your IDX feed is? Yup! “Dynamic”.

But wait there’s a workaround and a very pretty one at that. The folks over at RealBird have a slick application.

How slick? Check this out:

Hmm, I am liking this idea. Unfortunately my only listings at the moment are leases, but I am very interested in using this in the futre!

This looks very very cool.  I'm excited to go try it out.  Thank you for sharing.

Mike, thanks for this info.  My buddy Janie Coffey LOVES RealBird.  I keep meaning to get over there and start using it.  This is another fine example of why I should just do it already!

Maggie!  It was Janie's that I have been showing off for the longest time.  I've been toying with putting the tech into a custom tab and started doing that this morning - loving how it looks!

That's a pretty sweet looking FB Fan Page - like a mini-website.  Will check out RealBird this season...

You are still on the short list.  A lot of stuff got piled up behind you today from #vrebc, but you are still close to the front of the line...

Maybe I should make something clearer - RealBird provides the ability to bring in the Listings, I then wrap something pretty around that.  (usually that's the look, feel and links of your blog/website)  It's a match made in heaven!

I spoke to them yesterday at RealBird and I am sold.  Nice people, too!

Hello Mike,  I've used Zoltan's application on my FB Fan Page tab and love it.  Your extension of that is fantastic!  Thanks.  John

Gabe just told me about this, but I hadn't seen it in action yet. Thanks for the video, Mike!

I like what you are doing Mike.  Right now my listings are low so I am trying to get caught up and see what some of my favorite people are doing.  I like this idea.  I am going to reblog it so that more see it.  Hopefully, pull you some business too.  Take care
