Dorothy Kirtley (Dorothy Kirtley Real Estate): Agent in Salisbury, NC Dorothy Kirtley (Dorothy Kirtley Real Estate) said over 3 years ago,
"I start my day with Active Rain. I read many of the blogs on Active Rain and gain insight into how other Realtors are surviving this challenging market. I usually take their ideas, mesh them into mine, and modify the way I do things. It works. Active Rain is a fantastic tool for Realtors and only those not dedicated, don't pay attention. We all have systems and ideas that work. Sometimes they need "tweaking". This is what Active Rain is all about. In addtion, it keeps you on the cutting edge of what's new out there....so you can be informed. I am a believer! I am a Rainmaker! Dorothy R. Kirtley"
