I Am Calling About a Blog You Posted

By
Real Estate Agent with Aspen Lane Real Estate Colorful Colorado CRE# 40005863

Don't you love it when someone calls you out of the blue and says they are calling because of something they read online?

 

This happened to me last week.  

 

I had a very nice chat with a lady who is planning to add a new golden retriever puppy to her family this summer.  She read my blogs about my two golden, Rocky and Maverick, and saw that they came from Centennial Ranch.  

 

She called the owner because of my post and plans to go out there in the next few days to check out the conditions. 

 

She even called my dogs by name!

 

This just goes to show you that you never know who you are reaching when you post something in ActiveRain.

 

I think Rocky and Maverick are thrilled to know that they have a following on-line.  They will be offering Pawtographs at a later date but for now the publicity has them exhausted.

What a great way to get a phone call. That is inspiration for the rest of us, although currently I don't have any pets.  I'll have to take some photo's of the birds that stop in to visit my back yard.  Have a great day and thanks for the encouraging post!

Belinda, your dogs are just beautiful!  They look like they've just come home from a very long walk.

Belinda Spillman I think this is just great. I think that many dog lovers will want to do business with you because you value being a pet owner too!  Jan and dog Mandy

All that celebrity has really worn those two guys out!  And it is so fun that the lady called you because she knows you love these guys!!

Hi Belinda - Thems are cute doggies. You need to drag them up here for a swim with their Fort Collins fans.

The boys would love to take that car ride.  Maybe when the weather warms.

Belinda - I just got one of those calls today as well! As I commented to a friend, I guess people actually read my posts. BTW, adorable pups! We had a Golden named Sophie, the sweetest dog.

That is as cool as it gets Belinda. Blogging works and this is a good post for anyone who doubts it.

I usually get lots of calls in September and October regarding my Halloween costume posts. I love it. I've gotten several people to send me pics of the costumes they create from my blog posts.

Rocky and Maverick are gorgeous but I must say  that napping mid day when you have a following clamoring for autographs and photos is a little aloof, don't ya think?
