I Don’t Think Active Rain is Good for Business. I Know It Is!
Are you trying to decide whether or not it’s worth your time to spend some of it on Active Rain? Wondering why so many people are so enthusiastic about it? Have you been blogging and getting nothing from it and are ready to stop wasting time?
Well, then take a look at what Active Rain means to me (business-wise).
The phone rings, “Hi, Christine. You don’t know me, but I’ve been reading one of your posts, and I have a few questions. I was hoping you could answer.”
The phone rings, “Hi, I was curious about the first time buyer program for Huntington Beach.”
The phone rings, “Hi, I was interested in getting more information on foreclosure and trustee sales. Do you have time to meet and discuss my options?”
Do you wish your phone would ring with questions from potential clients asking if you have the time to meet with them? Would you like to receive emails requesting more information about homes in your area?
Do you think this is a fantasy that could never happen to you?
Well, I’m here to tell you it can and does happen to me. Not only that, but these are calls that I’ve received in the last two weeks, over what most would consider the slow holiday season. For more related business pots and information, read here about the many new retail franchise opportunities.
And, it comes from Active Rain. How do I know this? They usually reference a particular blog.
Do I care that a lot of these don’t get a lot of comments? Not so much since I’m here for business, and that’s what these posts are bringing to me.
In addition, I’ve received a referral from another Active Rain member in the last few weeks and also many hits to my website directly from Active Rain and have received other leads from my website which was unfindable in the search engines before I came to Active Rain and began posting and learning how to optimize my posts for SEO.
So, do I think that Active Rain is good for my business? I know it is. It has been amazing for my business.
