About
The Agent Guide provides easy-to-use, client-generating tools for real estate agents. We also give out a lot of free advice and resources, both on our website and this blog.
Our mission is to get real estate agents past the “implementation barrier”.
That means, providing what it takes to get client-generating strategies up and running, instead of endlessly on the drawing board.
Sometimes we do that through downloadable tools, sometimes by pointing agents to a great resource, and sometimes by taking a project out of agents’ hands completely (so that it’s guaranteed to get done!)
Our Specialty
We specialize in a completely done-for-you real estate e-newsletter service.
A few things agents love about this service:
- Once an agent signs up, the consistency is guaranteed because we take care of everything.
- We respect newsletter readers, and only send articles that are useful, interesting and concisely written.
- Agents get to personalize newsletters with their own business photo, color choice, greeting style - even their handwritten signature if they like!
- We make setup painless, with complimentary support we haven’t seen anywhere else. (OK, relatively painless, anyway.
) - We offer a 60-day money-back trial, so agents can try it out risk-free to see if it’s a good fit for their clients.
There’s much more, which you can check out on the e-newsletter features page. You may also want to check out our rave reviews.
Coming Up at The Agent Guide
There’s a lot in the works for 2008, including a home staging and photography guidebook. For now, you can get great free home staging tips by visiting our photo gallery of home staging before-and-after photos, which we’re pretty proud of.
(Those are my previous listings, mostly my staging and a fair amount of my photography.)
About Me
I’m Irene Dorang, owner of The Agent Guide. I’m a real estate agent (eight years in the Seattle and Eastside markets), perennial student of marketing, Washington state certified real estate instructor, self-taught web geek, staging specialist, soon-to-be published author (spring 2008) and serial entrepreneur.
My dog, Libby, in addition to being an all around good egg, is The Agent Guide’s official business mascot.
This is typically where I’d post my business photo, but it is becoming abundantly clear that I’ve outlived it.
(Over the years the trend has gone from no remark at all, to “Nice photo”, to the current “Wow - this is you?” - with the occasional raised eyebrow thrown in for good effect.)

However, it’s nice to see a picture, so here’s a shot of Libby, who is aging gracefully.
Working for your success in real estate!
