Calling Myself-Out “You” Might Get a Call.

 

To be the best, you have to associate with the best. I have dedicated myself to being the best REALTOR, and that’s why I partner-up with ActiveRain. ActiveRain dedicates themselves to real estate pros “they make it their business making real estate professionals better. ActiveRain makes learning easy and fun, look no further than the countless ActiveRain challenges that are fun & designed to make real estate pros better.

 

I was thinking about getting my feet wet by way of a personal challenge. Most of us always enjoy a challenge, and I thought about something I don’t do that often, but wished I did more of. So, with that in mind and a hefty drumroll…“The 30 Day Phone Challenge

 

Use the phone and put it to some good use, dial-up an ActiveRain member and say hi. The 30 day phone challenge sounds simple, but I think that’s a little deceiving. If you want “see for yourself. Take 10 minutes out of the day to call and say hi to another ActiveRain member, “nothing more nothing less….”

 

I have spent a fair amount of time in the RAIN, and there is no doubt that I have made some incredible connections with many ActiveRain members, but there are only a few members that I have spoken with directly. With the exception of a few ActiveRain members, all my communications have been through writing. Anytime I have had the pleasure of speaking with ActiveRain members directly I enjoy it immensely, “hence my challenge”  

 

So, if you get a random call from me I hope you don’t mind, all I am doing is saying "hi" differently. It’s all about making relationships, making connections, and being a productive RAINMAKER, and what better way to do it. The ActiveRain members I have had the pleasure of speaking with “I thank you” & to the ActiveRain members I am “about to call-up” to say hi “I look forward to it”

 

At ActiveRain, it is day and night “all” about real estate pros, and if you want to be the best real estate professional then you have to be a part of ActiveRain because they make it their business making us better. Calling Myself-Out “You” Might Get a Call.

Hey Jon,  That's a great idea.  I have generated additional business off of my AR connections.  In fact I have a deal closing in August that was a referral from someone in AR.
