Writing and Real Estate are Entrepreneurial

Writing and Real estate are entrepreneurial endeavors. Many writers don't think this is the case. They think they are artists. They are. These days they also have to have business sense.

Real estate agents are also entrepreneurs. Many are fooled by brokers they have to work under who take a goodly portion of their earnings.

I hope to fold both of these activities into entrepreneurship. You'll see.

My goal here is to help entrepreneurs climb all the way to the top. How am I doing?

Entrepreneurship is the life's blood of all my professional activities. It makes them go. It informs my connection strategy.

Entrepreneurship propels Sherpa Real Estate , my real estate referral business, go. See www.yourstopforrealestate.blogspot.com.

Economic Indicators

An economic indicator is a number that is believed to indicate something about the economy. It could be anything: housing starts, employment changes, consumer confidence, etc. There are also indicators specific to particular industries. The airline industry would have a different set than auto manufacturers or real estate agents.

A leading indicator is a number that changes before the economy changes. That is, an increase in new housing starts is often seen as a good sign because it means more people will be employed, more stuff will be bought at building supply stores, etc.

A current or coincident indicator is a number that changes with the economy. What the stock market is doing might be a current indicator, though it could also be seen as a leading indicator.

A lagging indicator is a number that changes after the economy has changed.

In real estate, for example, the number of people the agent knows is a leading indicator. As the agent's sphere grows in size, the more likely it is for the agent's business to increase down the road due to an increase in referrals.

What do you think? I want to know, so come and post a comment.
