Just Taught My First Active Rain Seminar! What a Blast!

By
Real Estate Agent

Well Yesterday I had the priviledge of leading my first Active Rain Blogging Seminar - and it was a Blast! I I joined A/R just a short 10 months ago - and I can genuinely say that I believe I've learned more about Real Estate in these past 10 months then any other period of my 20 year Real Estate Career!  Its been transformative without a doubt!  Its revitalized my passion for Real Estate and there's nothing I'd rather do then share it with all our Realtors!

I can't tell you how proud I am of all those who are stepping up to the plate to learn  about Blogging!      We had about 12 Realtor's attend -  I just wanted say Kudo's guys ! I'm looking forward to Part II tomorrow!

As I was preparing for the Seminar - I started reading as many "How To" Posts as I could get my hands on!  There is truly so much helpful information on here.......it truly blows my mind how generous people are in sharing of their wealth of knowledge....

I would be remiss if I didn't mentioned our A/R Community Builder....I think most of us know Brad Andersohn's amazing......His The ActiveRain Starter Kit is phenomenal! The depth and breadth of knowledge this man has - and his gift of outlining the information in a strategic and user friendly manner is truly remarkable........Brad thanks for the posts and Videos!

        "When the market shifts most people get confused and start believing that the floor is the ceiling when actually the ceiling is now the new floor. Our world and assuredly our markets are being built from the ground up and you can get in on the bottom floor and ride the next wave to the top. Forget about the past, the future is going to be controlled by those who see the opportunities that lie ahead and are rewriting the rules. You can either live in the past or break free to the future."

Thank you Liz for Parts 1 & 2 of your Active Rain Seminar! Although I've taken to this quite readily, I learned soooooooo much! The HIGHLIGHT for me were your notes on LOCALISM!

Couldn't have been more relevant!

I have a few really neat ideas now swirling round in my head, and clearly not sleeping.

Liz :: Sounds like you had a lot of fun and your students really enjoyed the seminar. It is simply remarkably that you were willing to share your knowledge with others.  Looking forward to reading all the wonderful post by your fellow Realtors in your office in Fraser Valley.  Keep up the great work...who knows maybe you'll be the next traveling Active Rain teacher!!!
