Winning attitude nets Brendan R5 000

At the recent launch of the CARE programme in KZN, Scott Picken of IPS spoke about the value of social media in an integrated and successful marketing campaign. It's instant, he said. It's also a medium that's gaining momentum and - best of all - it's free!

He challenged the 350-odd agents who attended the function to film themselves talking about three good reasons to invest in property and post the video on YouTube. Privateproperty.co.za instantly offered R5 000 for the best submission.

Congratulations to Brendan Funnell for this contribution!

Brendan's torn between investing his winnings back into his business by buying a GoPro camera for better quality video and images for his listings - or getting a table tennis rig for practice so that he stands a fighting chance next time he visits Privateproperty.co.za.
