Sticks and stones may break my bones but can names really hurt me?

At least a few local real estate licensees have taken offense to some name-calling advertising by a Canadian private sale real estate marketing company.

I would like to call a time out. And during this time out we would go to www.nonamecallingweek.org and learn some things about name-calling. Be sure to click the "About" and "Partners" links. Then return here.

So now we've learned how other communities deal with name-calling. Let's do something similar in our community which is made up of all manner of for-sale-by-owner real estate services and licensed real estate services. Something like just saying "no" to name-calling.

Consumers will decide which real estate service provider is right for them.
I don't believe consumers are won over by name-calling.

I'm not.
