What do we want from you?

Rainmaker BadgeActiveRain has a Rainmaker Membership Program. This gives new members an all-access pass to the most popular component of ActiveRain, our 2 million monthly consumer visitors.  

Rainmakers can post content directly to the public on ActiveRain & Localism, have those posts indexed by the search engines, and utilize anOutside ActiveBlog with a unique domain name. So we want our current members thinking about how to engage other real estate professionals to get started with a Rainmaker account.

Along with your new T-Shirt, you will receive 1,000 bonus points for each person who signs up.  While you can only win one T-Shirt, the points reward will be given for every new sign-up.  

What about the Big Prize?

This big prize will be awarded to the person who comes up with the most creative and effective way of getting others to become a rainmaker.  In other words, think outside the box of ways to get as many people to sign up as possible!  The grand prize winner will be chosen by ActiveRain Staff at the end of the month. 

The big prize for one lucky winner includes an unforgettable trip to Seattle to spend a day with the ActiveRain team. You will be awarded tickets to a special ActiveRain event during the day.  Along with the tickets to the special ActiveRain Event, your grand prize includes airfare, accommodations, and a dinner with the ActiveRain Staff as their guest of honor in Seattle, Washington.  The special event will be in the middle of June (The date will be firm by the time the contest concludes).

Blanton - If I have to hang out with Stewart, that will zap all the creative juices in any submission I may think up to get other members to join.  Unless of course, I can win a t-shirt of my own creation roasting his keister:)

Jeremy, a very good prize, though an even better one may be an all-expenses paid trip to Myrtle Beach to hang out with YOU!

So, if I email you an idea how to get lots of new members, and I win, do I have to hang around with you guys, or can I go fishing?

This is a great idea by Active Rain to pick the brain of some of the smartest people in the industry - for free. :)

I am 100% certain there will be some very good ideas that will be produced.

Oh, dear. My co-worker signed up for the free AR account, not the Rainmaker one. I still have two weeks to earn my T-shirt. Jeremy, the on-line diary idea is a good one. Thanks.

Did someone say points?  I like points.  If you haven't sponsored a localism page I think now would be the time to do so while they are still available.

Who won? And did @housechik really spend all night with Activerain? Or did she desperately try to get a good suit? And what about the fishing trip? Catch any?

This is horribly unresolved, but great fun.
