November AR Contest: A Day/Week in Your Business Life

 

Over the course of the last few months, I've been spending quite a bit of time in the Q&A Section of ActiveRain. (If you don't know about this section of AR, you should drop by for a visit!) Anyhoo, I have found folks who are either newly licensed or still in school asking questions about what's next. It seems they really don't know what they are getting in to, until they are in it!

 

This scenario gave me an idea for a contest. Let's see what we can do to make it easier for these newbies. I challenge you to write a post describing your average day or week. (You decide what makes more sense based on your business.) Everyone is included in this challenge...Realtors, Brokers, Lenders, Home Stagers, Inspectors, Marketing Specialists, Investors, Flooring Gurus, Forestland Experts! If you're an ActiveRain member, you can participate!

 

 

I love an ActiveRain contest when we get to learn more about each other!

 

Here are the rules and rewards:

  • The contest begins Tuesday, November 1, 2016 and runs through Wednesday, November 30, 2016.
  • Your post should be a minimum of 200-300 words.
  • Please include a photo, image, clipart, infographic or video.
  • Your entry will be awarded 750 points.
  • PLease include a link to your post in the comments section of this post.
