Yes, I would describe myself as an Active Rain voyeur. I got my license in September, and I have been working sooo hard to get my name out there, making contacts, going places I've never been before to meet new people. Mountains of mailings, newsletters, money on ads, Web 2.0, continuing education. Today I stand at 7 lisitngs, and 2 more coming this week. Things are coming together.

Active Rain has been a big part of my success, although I have been in the shadows, absorbing all I could from the seasoned veterans, feeling I had nothing to contribute due to my lack of experience. If I was in a panic, needed ideas on how to market a property, or just needed a lift, this is where I came. Well, I finally feel I have something to contribute, so here it goes.

THANK YOU! Thanks to everyone who has been posting. Thanks for the lift, the life lesson, the stories of perserverance. While I have quietly stalked the halls of Active Rain, I have come to know you, and now I would like to give you all a chance to know me. So here I am Active Rain. Thanks for the support.
