Sooooo many marketing goodies on Active Rain

By
Real Estate Agent with RE/MAX Alliance

I am so excited!  I have been marketing like a crazy person checking out the blogs to see what I could learn.  So far this week, I have learned about Constant Contact and I did some marketing with it that directly resulted in a showing.

I was convinced to join My Space and have set up a profile today and then learned how to add a button to my website, blogs, profiles and so forth that allows viewers to click on it to leave their information for me to call them back.

This button is customized for each site I place it on, so when I get the text message on my cell phone to call this person back, I will know where this lead found out about me.  This will allow me to stream line my marketing activities and dollars to be more efficient and productive.

I have days when there's a couple of hours that nothing is going on and all I can do is brain storm about how to drive business my way.  I love active rain and I am having the time of my life learning how to make myself successful!!!!!

Thanks for calling Margaret.  I was sitting here doing some work and my cell phone text messaged me with your name and number.  I picked it up and voila....I'm talking with you.  How cool is that?  I think it's an awesome feature and I have included this button on every page of my website.  If you would like to check it out on my website you can go to www.KombrinkMetroEast.com

Thanks again for the test call.  Now I know for sure the button works well.  :)
