Good Active Rain Friends Are Like Gold!

I have this site Search Idaho Homes with Point2Agent which is awesome and bringing me in a lot of business. I have found one little quirk with it and that is with loading photos into blogs and having them look good.  The photos work good with new pages added to the sites but not with new blogs.

I phoned Point2 customer support early in the week and the customer support person I spoke to could not help but said she would investigate it and call me back.  I never did hear from her so I went to Active Rain and searched for members with Point2 sites and ran across Nestor and Katerina Gassett which not only had a Point2Agent site but their blogs had great looking photos.

I called their cell and heard back from Katerina this morning.  Katerina was amazing and explained how I could upload great looking photos to my Point2Agent blog page.  Katerina not only helped me with this issue but we spoke on the phone a long time and shared ideas.  After we hung up I started the process of loading photos to my blogs.  I had a glitch and I called Katerina and she explained what I was doing wrong.  Walla, in minutes I had GREAT LOOKING PHOTOS on my Point2Agent blog page! 

About two weeks ago AR member Patricia Beck emails me out of the blue and emails me a great SEO tip.  I had never spoken to Patricia and had no idea why she would do something so incredible for someone like me. Thank you Patricia!

 

 

Last year I wrote about how Karen George and Chris Elizabeth Griffith helped me and guided me in creating an Active Rain Profile that has generated me a lot of business.

I hate to think what my real estate business would be like if I had never joined Active Rain and met friends like this. 

Sadly, I can also say I have requested information from some members and have never heard from them.

My friends, life is short and this world gives us but one opportunity to touch someone and make a difference. Today by Katerina returning my call I shared some marketing ideas with her that will help her. The help she gave me is appreciated more than she will ever know.

I hope we can all realize the great power of Active Rain but more so, realize the power in giving and sharing. 

Isn't this a great world???!!!

George,

Friends are treasures we discover as we travel the road of life.  They are valuable, precious and irreplaceable.  Just another one of God's treats for us all.

It's refreshing to hear that there is such wonderful folks in the world.

George- Sorry, when you called again I was in the middle of training our new buyer agent. Thanks SO much for the wonderful post you just wrote. I was so happy to help you. This is what life is all about, high touch and pay it forward. I have been so blessed in my life with so much that I would be remiss if I did not pay if forward. I love my God and I want him to say to me, Well done, my good and faithful servant, well done. That is my ultimate reward. Of course it feels good to help and reach out too! Thanks again! I sure do appreciate the link love. Katerina

Thank you for the kind words George.  I am sorry I haven't been around much.  I am actually sick again and I am going through chemotherapy.  I started on Wednesday.  I am in tremendous pain, so I don't know if I'll be around the computer too much right now.  Anyway, thank you again.

That is one of the best things about AR - People are always willing to help out. Katerina is a terrific person. I have known her since I joined. Glad you were able to figure things out.

I have been amazed at all the help I get here when I post a question. There are more people willing to call that I could have ever possibly imagined. I really enjoyed talking to you on the phone the other day and one of these days I'll have to head up your way to check out the fishing spots. Haven't fished in Idaho, but I image you have some pretty large fish on those rivers and lakes of yours.
