You see the above lettering? That’s the LINK to my Facebook page.

   I use Facebook for different reasons in pursuit of a single goal.  I take care of business on Facebook. I have a casual unofficial business selling household goods and art. My customers have all come from Facebook Marketplace.

I also use Facebook Marketplace to promote the sale of the open houses I host for agents with listings–while I am between listings.  Every Sunday, I promote a property I would be happy to own.  I announce the open house location on Friday or Saturday for the upcoming Sunday. I have been hosting open houses for two months. I will keep you apprised of the results for my real estste business. So far I have learned a lot.  It is too early to tell if I have earned a client through these open houses. Facebook gives me a way to get the word out.

ONCE UPON A TIME I FORGOT TO LOOK AT FACEBOOK FOR MONTHS ON END…

I did not always have a business. I worked for people. Facebook was a social connector. However, I found it depressing.  Everyone’s life seemed more vibrant than mine.  Even if I lied I doubt I could’ve matched the joy everyone else appeared to emit. No, I did not want to keep in touch in my late teens!

THE PRESSURE OF SCRUTINY

Maybe I was not keen on people getting to know me and my vulnerabilities.  I did not want the cruelty that is par for the internet course.  People love to say mean stuff and I have many  visible flaws Oh no! I was going to get slammed.  I decided  no matter what people said that was hurtful, I would stay brave and believe that someone was inspired by ny bravery. Hint: I have less than perfect skin.
