RainCamp Reviews & Testimonials

By Brad Andersohn

Education & Training with Retired Executive Director of Education at eXp Non-Licensed

January 30, 2010 02:52 PM

Having recently been to Seattle, San Francisco, New York, and now on our way to Dallas Texas, I wanted to share what others who have attended these RainCamps experienced, and are sharing with us. This Review and Testimonial Lens is starting to grow with some great testimonials and feedback. There's some new Blog posts, member comments, a few photos and video, and a "live" twitter feed. The RainCamp "cloud" is beginning to take form.

If you attended any of the RainCamps, or plan to this year, we'd love to get your feedback and add it to The RainCamp Page. We are all about making RainCamp "The BEST" it can be and are only able to do that with your help and support. Share with us what you liked best, and we'll make it even better. Based on many of the posts and comments, it looks like we're on the right track.

There's a feedback section available at the bottom of the page, just click the RainCamp button below.

Reviews HERE

If you have already written a post or review about RainCamp and would like it added, just leave me a link, I apologize if I may have missed it when putting this together. You can also just leave a review or comment here, and I'll take care of the rest. We'll be updating the page often with reviews and comments from each event going forward. Can't wait to see yours. :-)

So come experience "Rainergy" then share your thoughts and experience with us. We love hearing from you.

I've really enjoyed travelling around and meeting so many of you in person. I'm excited and looking forward to seeing and meeting many more of you at future RainCamps, especially this one coming up in Dallas, I get to wear my Cowboy Hat and Boots! (Big Smile)

Hi Brad - Are you guys ever going to make it to the Louisville Kentucky area? Even Indianapolis or Cincinnati would be good.

It was great to meet you and the team in person when you were all in NY. I still owe AR a follow up blog post on this topic and will include a review and testimonial.

BTW- it turns out that I am wearing my RainCamp shirt today. My kids loved the tag line 'It is raining chats and blogs' so in addition to me you have to a couple of other fans in my home...

Brad, as noted, RainCamp was a better than full day, you even left you cowboy hat behind. I was so impressed that I did write 3 posts about rain camp, one of which was all about your whirlwind, 1 hour presentation that took you 10 mins to present. The only tongue in cheek post I wrote was obviously seen by you:

"I was just as amazed and stupified at all the stuff that was offered and left the City with a sheepish grin because I now think that I'm going to be one of the smartest rubes in my town."

And that post was about getting into the wrong conference and being there for 30 minutes before Toula Rosebrock kicked me out. And yes I do think it needs a do over, too much for an old mind to absorb in one day.

Any thoughts on coming to the Southeast?

Hi Brad,

I was just helping an older Realtor friend of mine today on getting her blog ready and her profile done. I would love to apply for the other trainings, so she can learn "why" ActiveRain is important to most Realtors.... As an American living in Canada and a former Portland State University & Washington State University graduate, PLEASE, PLEASE come to ATLANTIC CANADA, (the other parts of Canada know you exist: Ontario, B.C. etc.) most Atlantic Canadians aren't aware of your existence too much here yet, but with some probing I believe they will be ready!!! Maybe you can hit all 4 provinces; Nova Scotia, Prince Edward Island, New Foundland and my New Brunswick, with one RAINCAMP destination. I did say "PLEASE".... Thanks!! ;>))

Hi Ann-Marie - I'm pushing for Canada!! How could we say no after a comment like that?

I know the AR staff is reading these posts, hopefully we can get Canada on the Calendar this year. Right guys??? :-))

Raincamp Dallas - What an event, Brad.... The highlight of my day is to meet all my AR friends. I love the fact that Raincamp is a spark of a new bloom for so many who wants to learn more about blogging, Internet presence and web technology. It think it's the coolest part that we are in the business with people who wants to be the fore runner of technology. SHIFT is here to stay and those who choose to come to Raincamps will embrace the knowledge.

Loreena - it was so awesome to finally meet you in person and get the chance to get to know you a little more. I'm glad you enjoyed RainCamp Dallas as much as we enjoyed bringing it there. You know who's going to get All the referrals from me in Frisco TX. :-)

Bravo. I'm spreading the word all over AR to let people know that it doesn't matter how long you've been around AR or blogging, you will learn enough at Raincamp to guarantee an ROI of time and money to get there. If you guys do it again within 3 hours of me, I'll in.

And of course, it was great to see some friends again as well as meet everyone I hadn't had the pleasure to meet IRL before. What a treat!

PS Hi Loreena! Good to meet you!
