RainCamp: More Social, Less Media - The largest online training event in real estate history. That's our claim and we're sticking to it! 4000 real estate professionals registered for our April 2012 RainCamp event to listen to Bob Stewart, Ben Kinney, Chris Smith and Scott Stratten share their best strategies on social media for real estate.
If you missed it, no need to worry, we recorded the whole thing! Below you can click on and view video of each of our RainCamp presenters at your leisure. So grab some popcorn and enjoy!
Bob Stewart, ActiveRain Chief Evangelist
Google+... I Love You, I Hate You
Bob will be the first to admit that Google+ is something he ignored when it launched. He knew it was there, but wasn't diving in until he knew it was going to be around for a while. But Google has been doing some interesting stuff with Google+ and it's integration with their search algorithm. Can you really afford to ignore Google+ any longer if there's a chance it could impact the search results of the people you're connected with? We don't think it's an option anymore and Bob talks about why, as well as what can you do to make sure you're keeping the 800lb. Google beast happy as you navigate the social media highway.
