I just returned from a much-needed weekend family vacation to the beach. However, one aspect of the vacation that made it much less enjoyable was the sub-par customer service.
The poor service really got me thinking about how businesses operate. I tend to do this when I experience really good or really bad customer service.

Growth is a good thing. The platform you want to be running your business on is the one that is regularly growing and evolving better to suit the market and the needs of its users. After all, real estate is a competitive game, so it's important to have the best tools to give you a leg up on the competition.
Growth isn't always easy, though. With new functionality comes new things to learn, and we all have limited time. I don't have any big secrets that will take away all the challenges out of staying up to date on a platform that is always growing, but I do have a few suggestions that I hope will make your life a little easier when it comes to running your business on one.
