What Does It Mean Being a Rainmaker in Activerain
It was an early evening of Saturday, March 21st; I visited my Activerain blog to make some updates or see how things are going in the community.
To my surprise, I saw that badge posted closer to my profile pic which says: "ACTIVERAIN RAINMAKER". "Wow", I said to myself; and went on: "Did I just earn that thingy from being a part of this community? Isn't that wonderful?
I've been in Activerain (AR) since 2006. From that point on, the blog I've initiated has been a part of my career as a real estate professional. Not only that my clients, or web visitors acknowledge my presence on the internet, but they appreciate the fact that there is that kind of community where you see those people in the industry connect, if not share ideas on certain topics. Not only that do they see real estate practitioners from Greater Vancouver, BC but the rest of Canada and the US.
In whatever way we contribute to this community; we help build a growing network or bring in some traffic to the site, I could say that AR is a very useful tool for both the Pro and the Newbie.
What more could I say?
"Well, Activerain, you make my day!"
More power...

Puzzled...yesterday, after spending much time on Twitter I checked my Active Rain profile to post and found that I too was a "RAINMAKER" complete with badge...today, the badge has been removed?WTH?
Can you tell me 1. What does the badge mean? and 2. Why would it magically disappear?
Somebody email me!
Thanks!
Shannon
...because you were members and posting prior to February 16. 2009 you are Rainmakers. I think. It may also be that you had to have 10K points... or that may be for the badge in comments. It is kinda confusing but being a rainmaker is a good thing.
I have one and it is a good thing...Sheila
Happy to be a Rainmaker, but still not quite sure what it all means.
You mean you didn't receive your Rainmaker Orientation Guide, ROG in your email?
Neither did I. I found this blog entry when I searched "What does it mean to be a Rainmaker on Active Rain?"
I still don't know either...
Me and my colleague have been asking ourselves the same questions... What benefits do we get for being raimakers?
