Let's get Soci@l - Win a FREE IPAD

By
Real Estate Technology with ActiveRain

Every time we announce a new RainCamp location, multiple people request that we bring RainCamp to Florida, NC, Kansas City, Kentucky, the Northeast, the Southwest, the Midwest.........(you get the idea)

So we have!

Wait, what? You must be saying. You came to my neck of the woods and I missed it?.......well, Kind of. You see, just after we began doing RainCamps, back in October of 2009, the eBook Soci@l was released. Written by Ben Kinney, top producing agent and headline speaker for RainCamp, in conjunction with Jay Papasan, co-author of SHIFT and The Millionaire Real Estate Agent, with an assist from Jon and Bob here at ActiveRain, Soci@l is a guide to using social media for your real estate business.

It's the foundation of what we teach at RainCamp.

And for a limited time it's free for you to download right now by visiting activerain.com/raincamp

When we bring RainCamp to a city, attendees can expect to learn some great internet marketing techniques.

  • Are you wondering how to get your website to rank on the first page of google? We show you how at RainCamp and it's covered in Soci@l.
  • Are you wondering how to get your blog posts to rank on the first page of Google? We show you how at RainCamp and it's covered in Soci@l.
  • Are you wondering how to use Facebook ads to target highly specific niches? We show you how at RainCamp and it's covered in Soci@l.
  • Are you wondering how to create a Facebook fan about which people will actually care? (and it's most likely not a fan page about your business or yourself) We show you how at RainCamp and it's covered in Soci@l.

At RainCamp, we show you all kinds of fantastic internet marketing ideas that you can put into practice right away to help you attract friends, followers and connections to your business and most of them are outlined in Soci@l.

Now you could just go download your free copy of Soci@l, but what fun is it to just go download something and read it because it's going to help your business and give you some very practical ideas about using social media to close more deals and earn more commissions? So to make sure you download Soci@l and to make sure you read it, we're going to give you a chance to win an iPad.

Here is what you need to do:

  1. Download Soci@l by going to the RainCamp Page (It's on there, just look a little)
  2. Read Soci@l and choose the one chapter you liked the best.
  3. Write a blog post summarizing that chapter and sharing something you learned from the chapter.
  4. Come back to this blog post and leave a link to your post in the comment section here.

Bob -

I'm distressed.  I looked in vain last night for this post outlining the challenge and providing for placing the comment.  I could not find it.  I looked at your blog and then at Brad's then at yours...repeatedly.  Nuts, I know.  (Insanity is doing the same thing over and over expecting a different result, I guess.)  But I kept trying, also going to several challenge posts looking for the link (no luck they'd not included it) even as the system became hard to us in the last few minutes before 9:00 PST.  Then time expired.

Now I have read a newly featured challenge post and found a link...and guess what:  There is an Official Blog.

Who knew? 

Well, I did actually.  I subscribed some time ago.  But I could not find it among my long list of subscribed blogs.....no cool pix of you and your lovely bride.

So here is your link: 

XXXXXXX

 

Have I sucked up to the Judge enough yet?

Thanks again for the opportunity guys.  The book has already become a go-to reference for me.  Will it come pre-downloaded on my new iPad ;)  ?  If you'll excuse me, I have to go tend to my purple calf... she may be little but she's growing every day :)  

Soci@l The book Mooooved me!
