GMAC rebranding to Real Living - The real estate event of 2010?

ActiveRain Channels

The announcenment of the GMAC / Real Living merger made Stefan Swanepoel's Events of the year 2009

Will the actual Real Living GMAC merger be huge in 2010? 

GMAC rebranding to Real Living  - Channeling your energies

Psst here is a little hint about using the Channels on the ActiveRain Real Estate Network to YOUR advantage and Real Livings.  Look at the Channels on the front page (reproduced above.)  The professional Channels are in blue on the right side.   Telling the real estate industry about the merger and rebranding use a professional channel.  When you are talking to consumers use one of the Yellow channels if you are an ActiveRain Rainmaker.

When you post content to ActiveRain you have to pick a channel.  Most people choose ActiveRain as the Channel.  The ActiveRain channel is described as: 

"The ActiveRain Channel is the channel for all things ActiveRain, including the use and tutorials for the site, announcements, reminders and deployment of the next big thing. "

Announcements about Real Living usually are not about ActiveRain.  Are they? They are about a real estate event....

Announcements about this merger  are about the real estate industry... Looking at the professional channels I think they are about Networking...  ActiveRain describes the Networking Channel as:

"The Networking Channel is the channel for expanding your professional sphere and linking with contacts in the real estate business." 

Want your post about the Real Living merger hot wired to the search engines?  Use Networking for your channel and Industry Events as your topic.  Spelling counts, don't say Industry Event it has to be Industry Events (plural.)  The way it shows on the Channels and Topics on the first page of ActiveRain.  Use that topic and you will be one link away from the first page on ActiveRain.   

If you have a Rainmaker account (able to post publicly ) use one of the three Topics shown on page one of ActiveRain under each Channel whenever possible. The page is one page from the front page.

I have the Networking Channel Industry Events page to myself right now but you are welcome to join me. You can change the Channel and Topic on your post and it will not disrupt anything,  Rebranding as Real Living deserves to be the Industry Event of 2010.

ActiveRain Channels Matter

ActiveRain Channels

ActiveRain's ActiveRain Channel is ActiveRain's Junk Drawer  - the ActiveRain Channel is s professional Channel for talking to one another. The ActiveRain Channels is described by ActiveRain as  "The ActiveRain Channel is the channel for all things ActiveRain, including the use and tutorials for the site, announcements, reminders and deployment of the next big thing."  Mosly it is just a junk drawer.  Not the best or easiest place for people to find your content whether it is written to consumers or professionals.

Thank you the information.  I can always use more help on how to effectively use more on ActiveRain.   I am going to mark this blog and take the time with it tomorrow in the office.

We have had a lot of changes in Real Estate companies in our area.   I want to make sure that in the next 2 weeks as we change over in our office it is done on a positive note.  No one went out of business here but only making a change for the future.

If you ever need help on ActiveRain let me know Shelly.  I have figured out some neat stuff on the channels.  That professional channel is the perfect spot for us to talk to others in our industry about the Real Living brand. This may be the Industry Event of 2010.  It is exciting for us.
