I am star struck by the net, that's right..who would have thought in my lifetime I would be connecting with people without leaving my chair..without spending millions.  This amazes me and I never take it for granted.

Often times we expect the net to work for us by placing posts or just having a website..the truth is you have to still utilize other forms of contact with picking up the phone and face to face..another words prospecting whether you are fund raising or contacting buyers and sellers.

Now when I say I am star struck by the net..its the whole concept along with people...the net is people..we as people build the net. 

People still need to supplement additional tools to their on line marketing.

While raising money for MDA I had the privilege of talking to rainers...I want to thank each of you with a little link love not only for conversations..but for donations..and those that donated and I did not call. 

Sorry but that day, I was prospecting and prospecting hard.

4 hours and who did I talk to.. (gee I hope I don't forget anyone)  Please tell me! :)

Don Rogers always makes for great conversation as a matter of fact I told him yesterday he is one of the few who can get away with calling me ma'am. 

Todd Clark respected the fact I was prospecting so we chatted a few minutes and it was on to the next call...

Tom Braatz made me smile with his enthusiasm..

and I asked Brad Andersohn for his autograph and really really appreciated the conversation...

Missy Caulk is one of my favorite people on the rain...so our brief conversation really pumped me up..

Brian Block is a real pro..I didn't leave him a message but he called me back and left me a message. 

OK, so I did leave a message for my on line crush..Marti I had too..after all he does so much for so many.

Wayne Garab and I chatted a bit..I have a phone date with him next week.

JeannetteNeerpat checked up on me..darn she is a real estate machine right now.

Scott Daniels and I spoke briefly, not paying attention I thought it was Neal Bloom so sorry Scott for the way I answered the phone..with YO!  I was embarrassed and I admit I address Neal this way!

Sara Bonert was so sweet and warm..I've met the cutie pie..and she sent an early donation..I had to call her..she led me to Spencer Rascoff who gave me the largest donation.

Jason Sardi is like a little brother and I really enjoyed talking with him.  Geez I hope I didn't forget anyone.

 

Oh yeah, Mark Dougherty, Ian Anderson and Leslie Wedemeyer....Donna Dosch, a few of the Daytona Beach Rainers.

Then there were a few I did not get to talk to..but I called..hopefully they were selling lots of real estate and making lots of money. 

If you saw a 386 area code..yup it was me! No I didn't leave too many messages..I was prospecting...so rather than leave a message...NEXT!

Hey, I really enjoyed talking to you also. I was hoping to get to meet you when I come down to Florida, but it looks like I will be about 3 hours from you.

Midori - Always a pleasure.  When you call I know who it is without you even having to introduce yourself.

Midori, what a blast with all these names! Isn't it strange though how we have gained so many hundreds of new relationships through AR? I just love it and I just want to say Congrats!

Later in the rain~Deb

Midori, I'm sorry that we missed each other this past week, but I've been in and out every day running all over town.  We'll have to catch up soon...

All because of a chance meeting at a trade show... :)

Thanks for the professional and philanthropic work that you do!

Midori, I just thought you would want to know that I got a google alert on this on your AR outside blog. That is the first time it has happened so it was exciting to see them getting indexed and coming up in google from there and not here.

Nice to talk to you, we'll talk later !

Midori what did we even talk about?  It was pooring down rain, I was driving through crazy traffic, running late to an appointment.  I really don't remember what the heck I said on the phone! LOL

This is a great story!  I have been lucky enough to catch Jeremy as well.  You can literally 'hear' him smiling over the phone.  I am certain his clients hear that too.

Hi Midori, It is amazing how we have all these friends all over the country.

All the best!
