Yesterday I attended a wonderful Webinar, hosted by NoBloggerLeftBehind.com. If you are a blogger and have not been to the site or attended the program, you are really missing the boat! The session on Thursday was about Active Rain, which I really needed. Active Rain has always felt too busy for me...like a convention or large store....with 97,290 members it can be overwhelming! Now I have a different opinion and know how it can help my business.

       We had Joeann Fossland, Master Certified Coach  with Frances Flynn Thorsen, Managing Editor of RealTown.com and award winning Blog Coach running the show. In attendance with me were Pam Dent, from Charlottesville Virginia ( I used to live there), Monica Macnamara ,from Ocean City Maryland, Margaret Rome, from Baltimore Maryland (lived there too), Peg Silloway from IBlogForYou.com and I am sure there were more listening. Pam and I were in a NoBlogger eight week program together. Monica is the RealTown/Inman Connect Blog Contest Grand Prize Winner is going to the Inman Connect Conference as a prize ( congratulations Monica). Margaret, an award-winning dynamo, has been very successful with her ActiveRain blog and was the great speaker...she is even publishing a book in November!

     We talked about listing posts, tag, comments, and more. One of the most important tips was to use the listing posts to help your seller see how global we can be. It is always fun to learn new ways to market yourself and your business. I will post a link to the Webinar when I get it so you can see what I am talking about. There is so much to learn, everyday there is a new tech tool for us to use. Do you love it as much as I am?
