I Noticed Active Rain is Now Over 50,000 in Membership!

Active Rain real estate blogI think http://www.activerain.com/ has reached a milestone and no own is boasting about it!  For the last few days I noticed that we were approaching 50,000 in membership and we reached that milestone today without anyone noticing or writing about it that I could see!  ActiveRain is a great opportunity for learning and sahring ideas, experience, mentoring, networking, marketing and more!  It is impressive to see how much ActiveRain has grown and realize that it probably hasn't even reached any of it's potential just yet!  There are so many possibilities for ActiveRain and it's members!  I also would like to thank all ActiveRain members that I have met, and chatted wiht over the phone.  This has been an incredible experience! 

Congratulations!

Jim - I saw a post about it early this morning.  It was 50,006 when she looked.  At the time I read her post only 20 min had gone by and it was at 50,011.  As of right now - 9:56pm Eastern time - it's 50,160.  Amazing how fast this group grows, isn't it?

Nancy quite a milestone!  I did not see another blog on it!

Wow, Jim...just think, there's over 50,000 potential addicts! LOL!! Active Rain is an awesome place. The people I've "met" are wonderful and can't wait for the opportunity to meet some of you all in person.

I thought it was just a place to find out about our businesses, but my goodness, the friendships and support are beyond just an online community!

Thanks for pointing this out! Active Rain Rocks!

I noticed when I signed on, but didn't see any blogs about it.   There was less than 10,000 when I joined a year ago.  Great site get noticed fast.  We have made many friends and wonderful relationships, besides learning more than we can ever remember.  This community ROCKS!

Yep, I just saw that also. Although the downside is only 929 are currently logged on. Well, I guess it is a Friday night and only us geeks are on it

Kay Van Kampen   You are so right!  A totally positive experience!  And..."This community ROCKS! " is an understatement!
Posted by Jim Crawford ~ Atlanta Real Estate-ABR E-PRO (RE/MAX Paramount Properties) over 2 years ago
Craig Smith  Hey you're right! It's Firday night they are probably all writing contracts, or preparing to show all day tomorrow!
Posted by Jim Crawford ~ Atlanta Real Estate-ABR E-PRO (RE/MAX Paramount Properties) over 2 years ago

Wow, I think AR members heard me, the logged in just increased from 929 to 1357.

Jim- must have just submitted those contracts in

Posted by Craig Smith, Frederick MD Real Estate (Keller Williams Realty) over 2 years ago
Craig Smith  That is the way to go!  When you think of it, how many years was my Friday evenings tied up with sorting MLS printouts in a caravan route, calling owners and making appointments for 2 sets of showings on a Saturday!  In that sense, it is good to know I paid my dues.  It is good to have some free time off!
Posted by Jim Crawford ~ Atlanta Real Estate-ABR E-PRO (RE/MAX Paramount Properties) over 2 years ago
Ditto, Jim. Great community and great platform.

Jim,

Just some six months ago AR had under 20,000 members, if I recall correctly. And now it's going past 50,000. That's major growth. The word sure is getting around about the network and what it can do for your business. Where is it going to end? Let's help it get even better.

Esko Kiuru     I agree!  I am speaking in Branson MO next month and I promise to talk about Active Rain!
Posted by Jim Crawford ~ Atlanta Real Estate-ABR E-PRO (RE/MAX Paramount Properties) over 2 years ago

Jim, this is huge and it seems to be rising at an accelerated pace.... I need to see a chart on this! lol

CHARLES McDONALD  What an excellent idea for hte folks at ActiveRain.com to chart out the growth!

Paul Francis  Great!  Did you get the agents in your office to join?

Posted by Jim Crawford ~ Atlanta Real Estate-ABR E-PRO (RE/MAX Paramount Properties) over 2 years ago

AR is a growing concern! I'm hoping someone here will find me a buyer for this terrific property I have on the Bay in Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, maybe someone from Atlanta?  Got any ideas?

Reduced from $1,850,000 to $800,000 in one year

Jim, shouldn't the owners send us each a thank you card? After all we have contributed to the "value" of ActiveRain. See Are You Worth $60,000?

Bill Roberts      I ready your blog "Are You Worth $60,000?"  and it raises some very interesting points!
Posted by Jim Crawford ~ Atlanta Real Estate-ABR E-PRO (RE/MAX Paramount Properties) over 2 years ago

Jim,

I think everyone is busy talking about the failed sale of AR to the wonderful folks at MOVE.  Now that's something to think about.

Rita Taylor   Rita, I did not catch the details of that until Bill shared with his comments.
Posted by Jim Crawford ~ Atlanta Real Estate-ABR E-PRO (RE/MAX Paramount Properties) over 2 years ago
JIM:  I did see some posts talking about the number almost being hit, but yours is the first to acknowledge that it's been done.  It's funny.  I logged on when we were at 49,999.  If it hit 50K when I was watching, I was going to write about it.  I had to leave for a while, and by the time I got back we had broken it by about 25 or so.  I wish I remembered how many were here when I started.  I'm sure that the next 50K will come much faster than the first 50K.

Adam Waldman It was only the grace of God and luck that I saw it at all!  LOL.  Sometimes I have 20 windows open when I am here.

Jim, you should come back.  I got a comment from one of the owners of AR: Are You Worth $60,000?
