Meet Active RainMaker Praful Thakkar
I called Praful Thakkar today. I needed some help with email issues. After reading Praful's profile, I felt he could help me. Although I have been following Praful's blog, we had never spoken. Praful was great. We had a long conversation about many things including email, domains, real estate and Active Rain. Praful is very kind and very easy to talk to.
Praful had been an IT professional prior to being in real estate. Along with his e-Pro and Web 2.0 Specialist designations, this makes him a very tech-savvy agent! He's thinking while he's talking to you and he can talk on anything tech related. BTW, he is also a wiz in math! Since we were already talking, Praful and I decided to Ring & Sing in the Rain with each other.
How is business in your area? Praful responded that he covers seven main towns. He told me it is a balanced market, very strong and business is booming. However, he said, the town of Wilmingtown is a buyer's market for condos only.
What do you hope to accomplish in your business in 2016? Praful said he hopes to add 50% to his gross income. He wants to build a team by the end of the year, first by adding an assistant and then a buyer's agent.
What do you hope to achieve through Active Rain in 2016? Praful didn't miss a beat on this one. He told me he is # 14 on the Leaderboard and he wants to be in the top 10! He said it's an uphill battle, like going up a ladder. He said he has 800 followers which he hopes to increase to 1,000 by year end and be at 2,750,000 points. I have no doubt he will accomplish this! If you want to help him increase to 1,000 followers, please check Praful's blog here.
