I have received my very first referral from Active Rain, and I am so excited!!!!!!!!!!
The call came in a few weeks ago from Margaret Rome, one of Active Rain's Ambassadors no doubt. Margaret gave me the"skinny" on the customers situation and told me that she actually found me through Active Rain. She thought judging by my profile page that I would be a great fit for her customer and their situation.
I wanted to blog about the blessing immediately however I decided to wait a moment until I had all paperwork in hand.
I wanted to make sure that the customer was still on board. You see it is a short sale and well sometimes you just never know.
Well after I contacted the customer who lives out of state I learned that she didn't have Internet access due to snow storms in her area. Well snail mail it had to be with the listing agreements. I can't tell you the last time I went to the mail box but I was so pumped that I just did not care! I mailed her a listing package and a little more information in print about me. After answering some of her questions about the paperwork they were faxed back to me. The customer had to wait another day to shovel through to get to a fax machine.
So thanks to Margaret Rome and Active Rain I am the proud listing agent to another property. 1500 Calming Water Drive unit 1606 Fleming Island, FL 32003 is on the market and scheduled to be professionally photographed today. It will also be featured in the color magazine the "Jacksonville Real Estate" among other publications both virtual and in print.
Yes, Active Rain does work!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank you for sharing this story Kim, it's fun when things come together like this.
Thanks for sharing the success story. It's stories like these that keep Cari & I motivated to participate in this forum. ~Doug
That's wonderful news to hear, Kim and congrats!!! As for the snail mail? I had to MAIL something the other day and I couldn't find a mailbox to save my life - they used to be all over the place so I ended up going to the post office and stood in a line a mile long! uugghh! But, again, congrats to you and nice to see the power of Active Rain working for ya!
Malcolm- I am now a true believer in "The Rain"
Doug - Yes it does work--- keep at it!
Leesa - Isn't it so funny! I didn't even realize how much priority costed anymore. I thought it was still $2.90! I can't tell you the last time that I stepped foot into a US Post office.
Hey Kim,
Margaret is in my circle, she is a very nice person and I'm glad that you are excited, keep the good work and it's a pleasure to see posts like these.
Congratulations Kim. I'll bet it's a beautiful property and I hope it goes smoothly for you.
Kim, congratulations are in store! Margaret Rome is the face of the true Active Rain member. I know you'll do her proud. :)
