Thank you for all the invaluable info.

"I have received a number of short sale referrals from agents through ActiveRain. We are able to handle them very quickly and other agents are impressed with our short sale and foreclosure negotiations. It works out well for all of us and they their referral fees fast making them happy."

"A wonderful resource, referrals,referrals & more referrals!"

"It's simply My Success Story has to do with all the information I get from ActiveRain. Being a broker of a very small office with 30 agents. It's the largest office in our Market Area with 26% market share. I'm always looking for good Sales Meeting ideals (of which we now call Buiness Meetings). I think it very important if you are going to hold a meeting that you make sure your provide informaiton that will help your agents grow their buiness. Over the last couple of months I've picked up some new information to share with my agents and been reminded of some old information that I had not thought of in a very long time.
1. Informaiton about how to prequailfy a buyer (today you need more then the lender can provide)
2. Inforamiton about social networking and how to make it work in your buiness
3. Ideals about how to get your web page and name to move up in the google search. One today was about writing long sentences instead of short key words.
4.Legal vs ethical issuse that araise in our buiness. I hope we all remember that being a Realtor means it might be legal but it still could be unetical.
5. I've been able to share new and exciting information with my agents about how to market their properties.
6. I've been able to talk with others on Active Rain about realtor.com the pro's and con's. That was really a eye opener and How it works different for differnt agents. I think mostly depending on the Market.

This could go on and on but Success in ActiveRain is just like everything else you get out of it what you put into it."

"I've learned so much about how to strengthen my presence on-line with all the expert advice from fellow members. Some of my posts are now showing up in first place on Google searches!

Hyper-local posts about communities in my area are a powerful way to connect with buyers and sellers. I picked up 6 new listings after running a series of posts about one of our subdivisions here in the mountains."

"My partner has had great success with gaining useful information here as well as increasing our SEO and visits to our own personal website.... SO here I am to carry on that success.... I hope I can do as well as she has with this wonderful tool!"

"I started a blog while on Active Rain, and it took on a life of its own. I am in the process of finishing an e-book which will contain my best posts. I already have many pre-orders from my colleagues on Active Rain. The book will be ready for publication soon."

"Active rain has been the key to my real estate business"

It is an important part of my business today as technology has shifted in different directions, this is new school verses old school."

"Since 1989, having worked for Re/max, Coldwell Banker, Raveis and performing the daily operations of my Family owned Real Estate Company, Hometown Realty Assoc. LLC until the death of my Mom; a Milford CT real estate agent for over 28 years! I have sold many homes and have many satisfied customers. My Dad with Alzheimers Disease and having had to move him out of our Family home of over 40 years, I realized the need to help Seniors not only with finding their perfect place to live and marketing and selling their current home, but to help them with their entire move including helping them to organize, coordinate, manage all aspects of their move and help them with preparing a move plan to Assisted Living or other Senior Community, or to prepare their current home for aging in place or Live-in home health aide. I have developed a passion to provide these services inorder to create a stress free environment and easy Life transitons!"
