Special offer

Have you gotten your AR monthly bonus? Mine was 3866 pts!

Yes, it's like passive income...or dividends.  While I sleep, I continue to gain points (and if only I could cash them in).

 

How is that you ask?

 

I get my monthly bonus of invite points.  When you invite members, and they accept, you get 250 points + 10% bonus for the points they earn.  Those dividend are granted at the end of each month, so it's like a monthly bonus paycheck.

 

At some point last year, they started awarding these on the last day of the month at midnight.  I often accumulate more than 4,000 points, and my high has been 5,138 points.

 

Collectively, I've accumulated 173,846 points.

 

Yes, I know it's challenging to get people to accepts, as well as to blog as well as to stick with it.  But, I'm here to show you that it's possible.  Here are some of my success stories - perhaps you've seen some of them around.

Now this is a true motivating post! You got the points and we get to have terrific bloggers and friends like Joanna Cohlan and Grant Schneider and @Nurit Praeger too!

And of course, I couldn't say enough about you Debbie Gartner - you're a leading lady here on ActiveRain. I don't think I'll ever go into another Design Center or Flooring Store without thinking of you. Yes! You accompany many of us on those visits to our local stores, I'm sure!

Evelyn Johnston that is awesome.  I think my high was around 5,100 but it's more often around 4,000-4,200.  Good for you.

Roger - THx so much.

Patricia Feager, MBA, GRI, Cert Negotiations Expert, Military Relo Prof thx so much.  Yes, I'm so glad they have become such valued members of the Rain.  And, thank you for your super sweet comment.

Debbie: The more quality people that join AR the better...often that means we need to shake the trees and start inviting good folks instead of relying on them to find the site themselves.

That is a nice pile of extra points you have coming in. I have invited many people. Some have joined, but none of them are active. They are all too busy...so that's okay. I won't push. I'll keep doing what I'm doing, because it works for me and I have fun with it.

Debbie - Yes, I've had so many that didn't have time either.

Anita - Yes, you're right - we all benefit.

Wow!  That's impressive.  I've invited a lot of bloggers.  Very few really take to it.

Patricia Feager, MBA, GRI, Cert Negotiations Expert, Military Relo Prof go to your home page, and on the left, under your picture and points, you'll see an option to invite members.

Chris Ann - I know, it's challenging. I've invited so many who didn't blog and even more that didn't even accept the invite.

Gene - Thx.  Yes, it's challenging.  I have so many that never took to it either, so I can relate.

Hello, Debbie Gartner Yes, inviting others to join ActiveRain has two benefits.  One is points for us but just as important is what they bring to the AR community.  Thanks for bringing Grant, Johanna and Nurgit.

Wonderful Idea!  I have recommended AR to agents in my office and I have help train newbies that I know, I never thought of just inviting.  Do you do that on other sites, your office?  Debbie
