Boston RainCamp Top Tips & Useful Tools You May Not Know - Part 2
Useful Tools You May Not Know - Part 2
Hello everyone! Sorry for the little delay in posting part 2 of my Boston RainCamp series. I was trying to pay more attention so I wasn't stumped when I was called on again and I also had the opportunity to speak on the agent panel. The second part of the day was jam packed with tons more stuff that I couldn't wait to share with you all! Here goes it:
Google Alerts - I use Google alerts currently to keep track of every time my name or business name is published somewhere on the web. A good example was when the Worcester Business Journal published a technology article featuring me, I was immediately alerted by Google and was able to click the link to find the article. You can have alerts setup for any words, phrases or names that you'd like.
Google Voice - Get a free telephone number that you can use for everything. You can set it to ring your home, mobile or office number. Ben told us how he uses it to ring all of his buyer's agents at the same time and whoever answers it first gets the lead. Do you think they answer their phones? I do!
NameCHK.co m - Use this site to check for your user name on 100s of social networking sites so you can secure it if it is still available.
GeoChirp - GeoChirp is a great tool to use to help supplement your Twitter account. You can do radius searches around you to find local tweeters and follow them. You have a 50% chance of getting them to follow you back.
Logotournament.com - For about $200 you can have several companies competing to create the perfect logo for you.
SEO Quake - Investigate the search engine optimization for websites.
Yahoo To Count Links - Having links to your website is a very important part of getting it to rank. If you go to Yahoo and in the search type: Link:www.YourWebsite.com you will see how many links your sites have. So far I had 859 links on my www.JCKCRealty.com site. Not bad thanks to blogging!
Thanks again to Ben Kinney & crew for an awesome RainCamp in Boston! I can't wait until you're all back in the area to come again!

Kathleen,
I was at Rain Camp and heard you speak on the panel. Thanks so much for sharing your ideas and business tips. I learned so much about blogging and social media! You were great, and the whole panel was so informative. I am so glad I attended! The post is a great recap. Thanks again.
Great content yesterday Kathleen and you have recapped it in 2 great posts!!! Thanks for sharing.
Part 2 of this series was just as good as part 1 Kathleen!
By the way I checked the Yahoo link site you mentioned and I had 1,724 links to my web site!
Thanks for posting your notes from Raincamp Kathleen! What a great day and so much information. Glad to have to spend it too with you! Great job on the panel! Next year, I hope you are teaching it!
Wow! That's amazing Craig!!! One of the guys I sat with at RainCamp has the top team in New England and only had a few hundred links to his site. Blogging really helps! Everyone should stick with it!
I'd love to Michele! I've been telling Ben he needs to bring me aboard! :)
I'm really glad you enjoyed it Donna! I love to share with others.
Have a great day everyone!
