Book This Class!Homebot Masterclass: How To Generate More Repeat & Referral Business
As salespeople, one of the primary reasons you lose a deal is because of a lack of follow up. That goes for real estate professionals, too.

“Ricardo is a engaging and knowledgeable speaker on all things Internet and social media. He spoke recently at the RESA International Home Staging Conference in Las Vegas. All in attendance agreed he really knows his subject and presents it in a way that's easily understood by Internet neophytes and geeks alike. His personal charm makes him a very engaging speaker.”
Michelle Minch

“My experience at RE Bar Camp, reverberated throughout my marketing psyche for weeks. I knew that our realtor association had to partner with Ricardo Bueno. Ricardo has become a rock star in clearly defining social media as a business development tool for real estate professionals. Ricardo gives a grizillion presentations a month and they never sound canned. He is genuinely connected and tuned in to the needs of REALTORS and he's an incredible guide through the social media maze of information. Just great!”
Myra Jolivet
Pacific West Association of REALTORS
"Ricardo Bueno pulled off a major coup in gathering real estate professionals from throughout the Southwestern United States into one location for a dynamic one-day event--all of whom had a unified "THUMBS UP" for a superlative Los Angeles Real Estate BAR Camp.
In today's grumpy and critical real estate market? That was a major accomplishment. Would I recommend his services to the United Nations?
Absolutely!
Hire Ricardo and make the world a better place.”Roberta Murphy
“Ricardo is one of those guys that just gets it! His grasp on social media is impressive and his ability to break it down into simple terms solidifies him as a thought leader in this space. He has been a source of inspiration and not only is he a talented individual, he's a good guy. I highly recommend him.”
Brian Requarth

“Ricardo combines youthful exuberance with proven results. He understands the power of the new social media, but more importantly, how it is effectively and practically implemented in everyday business. He has successfully applied social media to improve & enhance his own business practice, and is gifted in helping others learn how to achieve the same powerful results. His working knowledge of social media is surpassed only by his genuine warmth and likable charm.”
Rich Jacobson
Windermere Real Estate/West Sound, Inc.
“Ricardo's understanding of how to utilize social media for business is remarkable. He proved the model by using the tools himself and now shares his knowledge with others to raise the bar for the mortgage and real estate industries. Ricardo led a session on LinkedIn at REtechSouth and the positive comments continue to pour in. Ricardo is a leader in our industry and I look forward to working with him again in the future.”
