Success in the Rain

"I have not been blogging much in the last year or so and now I'm back at it. Why? I LOST money. Last week I closed my second transaction with an Investor who found me on ActiveRain late last year,2009, and I hadn't been blogging very much but I still received the Google juice from AR. This is the 5Th transaction I can contribute to AR and best of all this client has referred 2 more people to me...." 

"My latest active rain success story is about a person who works for the University of Michigan. He found me on active rain a few months ago. I helped him find a house last month. He refered another friend who bought a house thru me......Then he is referring his mother to me. 3 people out of one blog. Active Rain works over and over. What is nice that you could be sleeping, you can be showing houses, you could be doing paperwork and Active Rain is still out there promoting you." 

"Joining AR was our first experience with social networking. Took us awhile to get acquainted and to find our way around AR....absolutely no regrets. AR gave us the opportunity to meet and make new friends, even across state lines. Our business has been increased two-fold through Localism (which is the best) to share community events within your community. Active Rain is the place where knowledge is shared and blolgging along is fun..."  

"I have received a listing in the $300,000 range from a Seller that enjoyed reading my blogs in Active Rain. I have also received a listing referral in the $700,000 range from another Active Rain Member." 

"The most rewarding part of being a member of Active Rain is the support you receive from other members. My success in my business has been accelerated 10 fold over the last year by the comments and encouragement posted by members who comment on any topic from how to write a blog, marketing ideas that are outside the box and in particular how to handle a business dilemma. Don't know how I could have had as much success without the benefit of everyone's support here on AR. Not to mention the connections made with Realtors in my area who now use my service because they found me on AR."

"Active rain helped me increase my google page rank and get first page placement in my local area! It really worked now I have a first page placement on my hometown for google search! I have 1st page on google for over 30 of my blog posts now!! ActiveRain rocks the house! It doesn't get any better than this! For sure. AR rocks is the best! Go Active Rain Go. Good JOB AR. Well done."
