ActiveRain Success Stories

"I got a call from an old friend who I hadn't heard from in ages and she had seen my blog on ActiveRain!"

"I received a long distance phone call from a number I didn't recognize. I answered and was introduced to a woman who advised she had read my Active Rain blog, "Shotgun Houses, Camelback Homes and Other Creative Architectural Styles." She explained she is relocating from the northeast and her fiancé' loves the "Shotgun Style' homes in the area. As she was unfamiliar I received a long distance phone call from a number I didn't recognize. I answered and was introduced to a woman who advised she had read my Active Rain blog, "Shotgun Houses, Camelback Homes and Other Creative Architectural Styles." She explained she is relocating from the northeast and her fiancé' loves the "Shotgun Style' homes in the area. As she was unfamiliar with the term, she researched it on Google. My blog appeared at the top of the results and offered my contact information. Moral of the story: Folks are finding us not just because we blog on market trends, but because we post topics that range from local events to things as obscure as architectural home styles! God Bless Active Rain."

"I'm still working on it and its name is still a secret but when its released, I'm hoping every Realtor uses it."

"Not only do I personally find "Active Rain" a very beneficial networking tool to connect with other Real Estate professionals across the nation, it gives me a solid base to locate proven Realtors in other areas to refer buyers/sellers in their area. Additionally, creating and commenting on Real Estate specific "blogs" gives me a venure to collaborate with other Realtors and get useful ideas to apply in my own business. I have also recommended "Active Rain.com" to other professionals I personally know locally and in other States to help grow their value in the marketplace."

"We are fairly new at active rain but we are eager to branch out and give great real estate opportunities to all."

"AR has proven to be a great source of networking and brainstorming."

"Success is no determined by my status or what I have acquired. It is representing my friends and family to the utmost standard and respect, helping those in need and living my life to the fullest extent with no regrets. Success has also been my pit falls because I have learned from them which allows me to make more informed decissions to better myself.

Lifes journey presents many obstacles but its an exciting way to live because you never know what lies behind the next door."

"I love being part of the AR community. I have learned so much about our industry, while also sharpening my blogging skills. I've got a long way to go, but I am inspired by so many of AR's members. Since joining AR I have received clients that have visited my sites and found me in a complex and competive internet world. Thank you AR, for giving me the platform to grow & develop my online exposure and business."

"I became # 1 in Edgewater 04/19/2010!!!Now that is an ActiveRain success story!!!


I added 2 referral to the site yesterday morning 3/29/2010, and I received almost 20 responses by the time I got back to my computer at noon. I was overwhelmed by the response, but now I know what to do if I need to refer someone to another Realtor in an area too far away or to a Realtor that specializes in something I do not know enough about.

ActiveRain has given the opportunity to meet several others in the real estate field with knowledge that helps me through tough problems. The support I get from my blogs is greatly appreciated and comments and suggestions are always welcome. Thanks ActiveRain!"

"ActiveRain has opened up a whole new world of networking and camaraderie for me."

"The buyer is comming next week to see some condos, he found me on ActiveRain. I am looking forwart to write a stoty about this."

"After six months in the business I received my first listing from ActiveRain's referral network. It sold in 17 days!"

"I do as I say... helping people is my success story, my pleasure and my future. I want to do the best I can in everything I do, professionaly, family, community and our world. I will do my best in what I can for what you ask me to do. Call me today to begin. Thank you in advance!"

"Stay Tuned!!! It's coming!:)"

"Hi Guys, interesting reading! I always enjoy seeing the varied opinions from other people. I also cannot believe how many topics you can find in Blogs and websites. The willingness for people to be open and frank; sharing their thoughts makes the world a better place. Cheers Rick"

"ActiveRain has been a tremendous networking tool for my home inspection company. It's also helped improve my online visibility. Thanks ActiveRain!"

"I have gained a lot of practical knowledge from Activerain."

"When I posted a blog about the safety in Puerto Penaso, I received a number of emails from people considering coming here but were afraid because of the false media reporting.  In one case 75 family members were able to enjoy a safe worry free visit as a result of my blog and the follow up emails. Every little bit of blogging helps.  ActiveRain helped me get the story out."

"Our referral partners are lenders and real estate agents from all over the country to know, like and trust us. Ask referral partners of Bank of America, Altura Credit Union, Wells Fargo, Envoy Mortgage, Broadview Mortgage, Wallick and Volk, Soutern California Direct Funding, WJ Bradley, and hundreds of others who use us every single day!"

"ActiveRain has been extremely helpful in sharing ideas, and most importantly helping me get my website to the top of Google's first page for some of the search terms most used for real estate in our area. I look forward to getting referrals from other ActiveRain agents, and will be happy to do the same if I have clients leaving my area.

Another success was attending RainCamp in Charlotte last week. What a great experience! I came away with so many ideas, and more importantly, ready to amp up my online presence and share with other ActiveRain members. Thanks so much to those who organized and ran the event, and for those members who shared their personal succiss stories."
