Hello, happy ARians! Someone asked the other day if I'd been let go, because they hadn't seen me post lately, but ...no... I've just been OMG super busy.
Luckily for me, the boys gave me something to share with you today... Click play to see these yahoos dancing on a Fun Friday morning to the Chipmunks! :)
RainCamp is coming to San Fran! DEC. 2ND! You can't miss out on this opportunity to learn from the top speakers from across the country on Social Media, and ActiveRain.

The ActiveRain RainCamp Tour is Official! Our first ever RainCamp in Seattle was sold out in just two weeks. Now there's a demand by many of our members and non members to bring RainCamp to cities all across the Country. As you can imagine, this is a huge undertaking for our staff and team. There are so many details that go into setting up this event, but our members and guests are not only worth it, they deserve it.
The "Rainergy" and "Buzz" that comes from a RainCamp is like no other event I've ever experienced. You have to witness it for yourself to understand and grasp the full value and impact it will have on you, your Business, your relationships in your community, and the industry. Here's what a few of the folks from RainCamp Seattle had to say:
RainCamp is coming to San Francisco on December 2nd, 2009 for a full day packed with great content, presentations, and some of the most useful and applicable ideas and processes that you can implement immediately into your Social Media, Networking, and Blogging Business Strategy and Plan. The Location and Venue we've selected is once again a "Top Notch" off the hook spot.
How is RainCamp different from other Conferences?
Assess how you stack up in the modern market.
Listen to people that are practicing what they preach, and having outstanding success doing it.
Learn the methodology of a newer agent who has leveraged the Internet to become a 'Mega Producer'.
Walk away with executables you can put into action immediately.
Hard core real estate technology education. This is not a fluff event!!

I'll be announcing those date and locations soon. We're still working out all the calendar and venue details.

The Age of Social Media has changed the way we think, how we communicate, and how we function. Now instead of Emailing, we Text. And instead of texting, we tweet, so that a large audience can be reached in just seconds. Imagine if a highly acclaimed restaruant reviewer who had a HUGE following on twitter (say most people in the area who eat food) went to your business, ate your food, and because the food was bad and service wasn't great tweeted about it, and within 10 seconds the 20,000 people who got the message were told to pass over your restaurant? That could shut your business down! As a business, we thrive on sales, on business, and on a positive reputation.
Because of the Age of Social Media, we are reverting back to the doing business the old fashioned way, by word of mouth referrals and suggestions. Back in the 1800's you went to a store because someone said it was a great place to shop, get a hair cut, or buy that fancy new automobile. The price was right, the service was excellent, and the product was fantastic. Because of Socal Media, blogging, twitter, and messaging to your sphere of influence can have a drastically postitive or negative effect on whatever you choose to write about, endorse your name on, or slander.
The way agents and professionals are taking advantage of ActiveRain is through blogging. Your blogging is an extension of your knowledge and experience as as real estate professional. Without a voice on the internet, you are just another person in the sea of possibilities for potential customers. Blogging gives you that voice, and if written properly, can let your voice be heard in the search engines like google, yahoo, and bing, and let you stand out, increasing your visiblity and increasing your business. Your able to do this as a Rainmaker on ActiveRain. If you're not a Rainmaker, we offer training and a trial here at ActiveRain so you can learn how to blog, and appear on the first page of google organically through your blog content!
At our recent raincamp, we showed this video for all our guests, depicting how the Age of Social Media has changed the way our world functions. It certainly has changed the real estate industry! This video will open up your eyes to how powerful social media has become. And the fact that you're part of ActiveRain, means that you're in step with this. Watch this and enjoy!
