When an alum announces on Twitter that he or she just landed an exciting new job, his alma mater’s social media manager might reach out with a quick, congratulatory tweet. But what happens after that? Does the social media manager alert the school’s career center that the alum has a new job and might be in a position to mentor current students (or even hire them)? Does the social media manager relay to the fundraising/development office that the newly successful alum might now have the financial resources to give money?Imagine another scenario: A high school freshman asks a question on a university’s Facebook Page about an academic program, indicating that he or she can’t wait to apply for admission in three years. Does the school’s social media manager simply answer the question and offer a friendly, “We’d love to have you!” or does he or she alert the admissions office that a particularly enthusiastic high school freshman has made an inquiry via Facebook?

Within three months, his blog made it to the first page of Google when the phrase "Malibu real estate" was searched. Daily page views started to rise until he was averaging 300 a day. On days when a news aggregator picked up one of his posts, page views soared to as many as 8,000. But clicks aren't commission checks. The first phone call from someone reading the blog arrived within a year, and business soon followed. His most expensive listing or sale came last year from a Malibu resident. "She enjoyed reading my blog and wanted me to list her house at $14 million," Gardner said. The 14,000-square-foot Italian villa sits on 20 ocean-view acres. A Seattle-based blog reader recently gave Gardner the listing on her $8.5 million Malibu house. Another, Mark DiPaola, found an ocean-view home site in Malibu last year through Gardner. "When I started looking for an agent I went to Google and typed in 'Malibu Realtor,'" said DiPaola, the chief executive of CheckPoints, a mobile app that rewards shoppers. "The first or second time I saw the blog it was clear he knew the market."
