Just another sign that you never know who is reading your blog.
Apparently some of the powers that be at RE/MAX are reading mine -- right here on Active Rain.
Yesterday morning, I was surprised and pleased when I got an e-mail from my broker (and from several other people in my brokerage) congratulating me on appearing in the RE/MAX Mid-Atlantic July 2008 Newsletter.
Wow! I had no idea. Nobody contacted me for the article. That's right. I had no idea.
Here's the article:
They even included a link to my Active Rain post Racing for the Cure with RE/MAX.
Here's the front page of the newsletter:
Keep on blogging. You never know where you may end up!

Blogging brings untold benefits....nice that you "got told" ...it's like our own personal AR motto..."it's the best thing we never paid for".....
I've emailed RE/MAX before about why they were paying NO attention whatsover to the blogging world and the fact that quite a few RE/MAX agents were participating.
I never heard back from them. Not even an automated "we received your email" message.
Guess who gave up contacting them?
Brian, I am thrilled that you were able to get their attention. Keep it up!
So, they took your photo without asking you...where is Lenn Harley??
Seriously, glad for the exposure and it's nice to be noticed for doing a great job!! Go Brian!!
It' true - you NEVER know who is reading...
Brian,
Nice job...I wouldn't know if they ever posted anything I wrote but hey who knows!
Good for you!!! Making waves!
Brian, it's always good to get some recognition from the powers to be. Your blog was noteworthy and for a good cause. Blogging can give you exposure where you least expect it. Way to go!
Awesome stuff Brian...just goes to show, ya never know who might find you!
Some surprises are pleasant indeed! Nice job.
