I saw this video clip doing the rounds on twitter yesterday.  It’s a clip showing how the magazine WIRED is changing their business model to appeal to the new consumer and stay ahead of their competition in the publishing World.

The iPad from Apple is due to be released at the end of this month.  We as an industry need to start thinking like WIRED, embracing new technologies and changing our business models to stay competitive.The iPad can change the way we do business if we let it, and why wouldn’t we? If it can do this for a magazine just imagine how it can benefit you and what it can do to help push the boundaries of your business.  Most REALTORS® are still trying to come to terms with Social Media and understand how it can change their business, they are not ready to take on another potential game changing device.  I am and so are all the other tech savvy REALTORS® I know through twitter and other social media sites. We are excited and ready to include the iPad in our arsenal of tools.  I  urge software developers to develop real estate specific software for the iPad so we can use this device to it’s full potential.  I want the ability to have a more dynamic listing presentation in my pocket / briefcase and to promote my listings with interactive software to buyers using the iPad.

Are you ready for the iPad, how do you think it will change the way you do business?
