What do you want to draw attention to yourself for?  To get other members to notice you?  To get more buyers/sellers to find you?

Answer lots of questions and comment on many posts.  Create compelling content.  If you want the attention of members, create posts about things that happen on the job, or a good best practices post.

Why are you on Active Rain?

This is a serious question. WHY are you on Active Rain?

Example:

1. To build a network of agents across the USA.
2. Find buyers and sellers.
3. Advance personal skills of persuasion via words written.
4. Create authority.
5. A platform to test marketing strategies.
6. Be the wise one who chooses to learn from the vast experience of others.
7. Have lots of questions.

Go and do what you have determined beneficial to you...the attention will always be directed to those who have a purposeful vision because such folks of vision don't waste the time of others and will create indelible impressions.

The secret @jillian, is you do not DRAW attention, attention will be attracted to you, the place where the illumination of vision shines in an arena of colorless twilight.

Do not focus on attention.

Focus on purpose.

The little stuff will take care of itself.

Define "draw attention"

I've been on here for almost 10 years and I've seen attention draw'ers come and go . . . and stick around for that matter.  

What's your purpose to draw attention?  Are you looking at it for the points, the referrals that may/may not happen?
