"My involvement in Active Rain as an affiliate has allowed me to introduce and teach area Realtors how to get started on AR. AR is a core component of my Social Networking class that I teach to agents in the South East Valley. Thanks AR for one more resource!!

Now through AR, I'm meeting more and more agents IRL!! This is allowing me to deepen these relationships and earn more business!

Our Active Rain Workshops have become so popular, we have to limit the attendees so we keep providing top notch support as the agents in the Phoenix area get their AR profiles up and running. These are hands-on, BYOL (Bring your own Laptop) events that show you the nuts and bolts of ActiveRain.

The success of the AR workshops has increased attendance at the rest of our Social Media Series for Realtors. We have connected with over 100 agents in a meaningful way, all because I signed up for AR in November of 2008. Thanks Active Rain!

The workshops have now evolved into our Social Media Mission Impossible, which is an all day bootcamp to get motivated agents up and running on AR, Google, Twitter, and Facebook. To see if it is for you, check out http://www.mytitleguypaul.com

Update: The first Social Media Bootcamp for Realtors was a huge success... 7 agents hunkered down for 8 hours to learn how to use Active Rain, Google, Twitter, Facebook, and more! Look in the Testimonials for what some of the participants had to say!

And now, my blogging,which started in Active Rain, has now grown into guest author posts with Realtors in my town. I don't think this happens without the training that Active Rain provides!"

"Charlotte is an entrepreneur at heart. It started at the age of six when she sold homemade greeting cards to neighbors and “circus” tickets to her backyard show. It has progressed from babysitting and selling lemonade to owning a restaurant. Now Charlotte is excited to be working with her passion: real estate.

Charlotte’s love for real estate started when she was 20 and purchased her first home to flip. She has lived in Rocklin, Sacramento, Granite Bay, Serrano in El Dorado Hills, Gold River and Fair Oaks. Living in so many suburbs and raising her children locally has provided Charlotte with an immense knowledge of the greater Sacramento area.

Charlotte is passionate about the areas she lives and works in. She volunteers in the neighborhood and at her children’s school, always chooses paper over plastic, carpools when she can and shops locally.

Coming from a family with four children (she was 3rd out of 4), Charlotte was a born negotiator. She had to fight for what she wanted, especially with two brothers! Running a restaurant has taught her how to work efficiently and effectively, and she carries these traits with her to the real estate industry. Charlotte works hard to get you the best deal possible while maintaining a win-win situation for both parties.

When you work with Charlotte, you can be confident that she has your best interest at heart. She works creatively to get the deal secured for you, effectively to keep the deal together and efficiently to earn the greatest return for you. Charlotte is a business woman and your bottom line is her top priority! She looks forward to making your next real estate deal a success for you!"

"Who knew that I could get a free masters degree in online marketing? I can't believe that I spent hundreds of dollars on marketing training and books, when I could have received even more information on Active Rain! If only I had been introduced to it earlier. Oh yeah... I was, I was just too dense to really take the time to learn about all that it had to offer.
Active Rain is like having the answers to the universe (ok, maybe I'm being a bit dramatic) at your fingertips, but you'll never know unless you let your fingers do the walking... on your keyboard. Seriously though- I've learned more about online marketing from Active Rain, than from any other resource out there, including: how to be found by consumers online, how to get first page results & how to thrive in a down market. And the best part about it is.... it's FREE and the other Active Rain community members are some of the most generous, selfless people that you could ever hope to meet! Thanks Active Rain!!!!!"
