A few months ago, the National Association of REALTORS announced that it had begun the search to find a Social Media Manger for what is America’s largest trade organization.
The search has come to an end. Today, NAR announced that they have hired Todd Carpenter to the organization’s first Social Media Manager. In a very Web 2.0 manner, the announcement was made by REALTOR.org’s Managing Editor, Hilary Marsh, on AgentGenius.
Todd’s first appearance in his new role will be at RE Barcamp Virginia, next week. I’ll be there, and I’ll be interviewing Todd live from the event.
As a community manager, myself, I think I might have an idea of what Todd might be able to expect in his new role. On the other hand, I am sure that he will be presented with challenges that he never even considered.
