Hello,

I'm new to the active rain community, but not new to real estate.  I hope to meet new people and offer up tips and information to those that want it in a professional manner.  I'm looking forward to getting my blog going.  Until then, thanks for the support active rain!

 

Sincerely,

Welcome to Active Rain. This is a great forum to exchange ideas in these economic times. I believe everyone should look at all income steams as we enter a new paradigm. I have multiple income streams that I would not have thought I would look at or could do!

Greetings Shane and I too want to extend a warm welcome to the rain.  A great place to learn, share, and meet other agents from all over.  Do spend some time looking around but one place I learned a lot was a group called Active Rain for Newbies.  There are all sorts of different groups to join - find ones that interest you.  But beware - it's addictive in here!

Hi Shane,

Kevin Sandridge, here.  I joined the Active Rain community not too long ago myself and wanted to drop a line to share some of the good vibes and welcome wishes I have received already. It's great to see another FL-Based colleague in the network! 

I'm very excited about this community - basically because folks seem so willing to help out, provide industry insight, and share their good news and experiences!

A few things: 

One:  Be sure to include a good amount of information on your profile page.  Check out the profiles on other Realtor's sites here on Active Rain who are listed as "Featured" or "Tops" in their area (look for high point totals).  You'll find that this will seriously boost your presence on ActiveRain - via the added points. 

Two: I urge you to keep blogging on this site!  You will be AMAZED at the awesome feedback you receive very soon after they hit the network!  I use Google Reader to subscribe to blogs that provide me with ideas about what I'd like to comment on - both industry wise and just for fun!  Check it out I am more than willing to step you through the site and to help you get a few more blog posts generated if you wish - as a way of adding some value and paying forward some good networking vibes!  :)

Three: Listings as posts are great - but be sure to add in a good number of posts about what you think and consider pertinent regarding your area of FL and the state of the real estate market there.  You'll notice that many if not all of the Featured posting bloggers here on AR do this.

Lastly, I do quite a lot of work via social networks, email campaigns, and relationship building.  If I can ever be of any assistance, don't hesitate to ask.


Looking forward to what you'll share with us all here on Active Rain!  :)

Blessings,

Kevin Sandridge
