ActiveRaiin Seattle RainCamp

Ok, I'll be the first to admit the following points will seem a bit random, but the points are some takeaways from Monday afternoon's ActiveRain RainCamp that I find valuable.  I've posted Monday morning's before the break and after the break takeaways also.  Enjoy...

  • Do something unusual that engages your FB & Twitter followers - ask them to do something fun to grow your business.
  • Use Dragon Naturally Speaking to dictate blog entries.
  • Put family first. Todd Clark does not miss the daily family dinner, kid's events, and does not work on Sundays.
  • Use local event and place articles to generated leads. Place the leads in a drip system that focuses on the information the caller (from the article) called for.
  • In addition to the obvious social sites, conisder about.me and socialbios.com
  • Slideshare.net/bandersohn shared Tech Tool For Agents slide presentaion.  A Must See!
  • retaggr.com helps manage ALL your social profiles.
  • primopdf.com converts your screen to a pdf.
  • fillanypdf.com lets you sign a pdf.
  • gimp.org is Adobe Photoship, sorta!
  • zamzar.com file and video conversion.
  • imagegenerator.org/ - self explanatory.
  • xtranormal.com/ - type and the characters become animated characters.
  • prezi.com - for presentations.
  • rssmix.com - self explanatory. Plus, feedmingle.com
  • wisestamp.com is a great sig creation tool.
  • screenflow.com - Screencasting (paid version)

Good stuff.  Can't wait for RainCamp to return to Houston.  We really enjoyed last year.

Thanks for the recap! I caught a bit of the flavor of the afternoon (bacon!) via the Twitter hashtag #raincamp.

Good luck everyone (points finger at self, as well) with implementing some of the stuff posted.  Might take a few years to incorporated everything learned in 2 days of RainCamp.  :)

Colleen, fabulous stuff.  I want to explore all these right now.  And I can't.  I have to be out the door in 40 minutes.  Thank you for your generosity in posting these.

I didn't let Raincamp change those dinner reservations either! I was with my family at 6pm on Monday and Tuesday and enjoyed dinner with them both nights. (Monday was a little later though, the restaurant we wanted to go to was closed)
