Last night I passed the 100,000 point mark. I don't want any fanfare, but it is a nice milestone to observe as I keep climbing.

I certainly couldn't have done it without the support of many of you who have read and subscribed to my blog posts and left some really fantastic comments. Thanks to the many bloggers that I've been able to post comments on and learn from  and the associates. Active Rain is a great forum and I have really enjoyed getting this far - meeting and connecting with so many of you.

Congratulations Steve! Steve you are pretty special to me, you are the very FIRST person to enter me as an associate on Active Rain: From one westie owner to another ~ Here's to many, many more.... Oh, and I found your picture just sitting around!

John,

I have made many connections along the way, and that's important. May even sell or finance some properties as a result also, but that wasn't the chief reason for joining. Now, if anyone is looking for a good sales coach ... :)

Ellie,

Thank you for your support. It took effort but so much of it (nearly all of it) was fun.

Steve

Teresa,

Thank you. Your comments mean a lot. I like the westie connection, and someday we'll be celebrating milestones of yours.

Dave,

I joined last year but didn't really know what I had. I posted a couple of times in February and really began daily posts in March. This particular post was #225 and yesterday was #200 on my outside blog Steve Hoffacker's Home Sales Insights which I have published daily since the end of January. That's over 400 distinct posts this year (some are similar but each is a different post). Specific clients? Not yet, but there's plenty of time for that. I don't sell homes. I sell land and I coach builders and salepeople. BTW, some of the people I have invited to AR have received leads.

Ken,

Is that right? 250? Wow, I'd better lay in some rations. That's gonna take a little while. Thanks.

Steve

Steve - Congratulations on your 100,000 points!  I know I really enjoy your posts.  You always seem to make me laugh.  Keep writing!  :)

08/02/2008 04:50 PM by Debi Ernst, Broker/Agent e-PRO (Ryco Realty Group)


Kieran and Cecelia,

I'm glad you are just kidding  - I could probably spare a few points but don't if transfers are possible. :) Besides you really want to earn them, don't you? Thanks for the good wishes.

Steve

Thank you. I certainly intend to keep writing - and I'm amazed at how many ideas present themselves. Thanks for your posts. I know that many of my points have come from commenting on your posts. :)

It took some time obviously, but I enjoy it. It's now become sort of a hobby. Thanks for your support.

Steve

Mike,

1,000,000? That's sure setting a goal far out, isn't it? I think I'll go for 200,000 and see what the landscape looks like from there. Thanks for your support.

Steve

You really have put a lot of work into this site.  Who turned you on to it?

08/03/2008 02:43 PM by Jeremy Asmus (Ron Asmus Homes, Inc.)


Jeremy,

I don't really remember how I learned about Active Rain. It wasn't someone who invited me. I had heard about it someplace and looked up the site and decided to join. The rest is pleasant history.

Steve

08/03/2008 02:48 PM by Steve Hoffacker - Real Estate Sales & Marketing Consulting and Strategies (Hoffacker Associates)


Steve:  Congratulations!  I'm right behind you.  I should hit the 100K mark this week.

That's fantastic. I'll be visiting your blog to mark that occasion. Thanks for visiting and commenting on mine.
