Cloud Computing + Google Apps

What is Cloud Computing and why should you care?

Cloud computing seems to be the hot new word, but what does it really mean and why should you care? 

BTW - it’s got nothing to do with this nice young lady either!

Does it have some benefit to you or your real estate business?  Well I had these same questions so I did some research – watch the short YouTube video on the right and start forming your opinion about cloud computing.

The thing is, you are most likely using some form of cloud computing right now whether you realize it or not.  For example – do you have any web hosted software: contact mgmt system, email marketing software, etc…? 

You see, cloud computing isn’t really a new thing, just the term has caught on and we are beginning to realize the true potential through applications.

Real Estate Professionals are sales people on the move – we tend to work from home, our office, a colleagues office, a coffee shop, our hotel, etc… so cloud computing makes perfect sense, take a look at this cool video on Google Apps to learn more about how you can eliminate the need for expensive software and dependency on a single computer.

Now since I practice what I preach and I am an active Realtor / Broker in one of the country’s most competitive markets I have decided to leverage cloud computing with a phenomenal product, FastTrak CRM, from MPC. 

They have created a tremendous solution for Real Estate Professionals by combining a true real estate CRM system with Google Apps and cloud computing.  Check it out for yourself – download a FREE trial, and please tell them DREW referred you!
