Success in the Spooky Rain

The Friday before Halloween weekend and it's scary how much success is happening out there in AR land.  It is spooky how referrals roll in and out of this place.  You may think it's eerily quiet and then BAM...your phone is ringing with a new lead.  Don't be afraid to frighten yourself out of your comfort zone.  The magic Google potion will be yours should you choose to drink it! 

Check out our cats, witches, and whatever the heck the others are and read their stories below.  I think you'll walk away with more than a treat!

If you have yet to write your own success story, I urge you to do so. Simply go to your profile page and click "edit" located next to My Profile (edit). Scroll down until you see the spot designated for your ActiveRain Success Story. Keep in mind this will not show on your AR profile but will be available to view on the ActiveRain Success Stories link located on our home page. Not only are all the cool kids doing it but you'll be awarded 500 points!!!

"ActiveRain has been a wonderful community, of which has assisted me in promoting many local businesses as well as my own work. My recent finding with Google Analytics has found that my referrals with ActiveRain show them as the highest contributor. They also have me as #2 in my Kendall, Miami, FL community of Real Estate Professionals & #1 Home Stager in the same community in the three month period I have been here. I have found a wonderful camaraderie beyond value."

"ActiveRain has been my best business decision in 2011, or maybe ever! Not only have I learned things about new technology, how to blog and how real estate is done in other states, but it has become a solid business, creative and social platform too. The AR community has a generous spirit that is welcoming to all!"

Kathy Streib (Room Service Home Staging)
"Everything I know about SEO and social media I learned from ActiveRain (my July 4th post from last year is still in the #2 spot on Google). I have a better knowledge of the Real Estate industry and of my own, Home Staging, because of ActiveRain. More importantly, I have a wonderful new group of friends, scattered around the US and Canada. Thank you ActiveRain."

Cindy Westfall (Prudential)
"I have been a member of ActiveRain since January 2009.... In less then three weeks of actively blogging and using my outside blog for the public, I received a call from a woman that saw my blog and wants me to help her find something when she comes up from California. Now I know that nothing might ever come of this as sometimes this happens, but it is up to me to keep the contact going until she is ready. It is a lead that I would not have normally received as it was directly from my use of ActiveRain."

"I heard about ActiveRain about 2 years ago and started a profile, which I didn't do anything with. Why? I wasn't really into social media at the time. Since then I have started to so so regular, mainly with other companies. However, I see the value of Active Rain since the quality of the posts are very good and it interacts me with other Realtors. I look forward to some client success stories to share."

Anna 'Banana' Kruchten (Phoenix Property Shoppe)
"More ActiveRain Success! Keep on Raining! Every month in the Rain gets more and more amazing to me - incredible actually! I've given 2 referrals, one solid buyer and one home sale. And I received another great referral for multiple purchases of investment properties. I'm here to say ActiveRain works if you take the time to build relationships, blog good content and share your gifts and talents....Active Rain Rocks!"
