Leveraging yourself is one of the key ingredients of any successful entrepreneur. Here are a couple of great tools, both free and paid, that will save you lots of time. And time is money!

A free tool on the internet called Postlets (http://www.Postlets.com) will allow you to post your new real estate listing to 10 different real estate listing and classified websites including Google Base, Zillow, Oodle, Vast, HotPads, Backpage, Trulia, ByOwnerMLS, Enormo, DotHomes, and Frontdoor.

For Social Networking fans, Postlets will put your listing right into your Facebook and MySpace accounts.

Plus, it offers a great copy-and-paste template to use in Craigslist. It creates the HTML that you will need to accomplish a Craigslist posting and will deliver you directly to their website so that you can create an ad on Craigslist by pasting the HTML into the appropriate form.

The free version of Postlets will accept up to 6 JPG photos with a couple of non-intrusive ads. There is the ability to ³upgrade² to the ³Plus² version which removes the ads that support the free version, add up to 18 photos, video and more for $5. The Postlet has a 60 day life and can be renewed if the listing hasn't sold yet. Postlets is the best of the free options, their pay option is among the most inexpensive.

If you were looking for another great service that is only $125 per year, I would again recommend the Real Estate Shows site at http://www.realestateshows.com where you can create unlimited movies created from photos you upload.

In addition to being able to publish your video in a Flyer to Google Base, Oodle, Trulia, Zillow, Vast, Hotpads, Geebo and Viewr -- RealEstateShows.com also has one-button publishing directly to your YouTube account. Be sure to add in the best Keywords into each YouTube submission for maximum Google placement! This service averages to less than $11 per month, but if used to its fullest potential, can prove invaluable, and put those 360 panorama tours to shame.

In no way should you use these as a complete substitute for good blogging, but used wisely, you can intersperse your personal blog and social networking posts with quality posts showing off your hot listings, and give yourself the look of quality.
