THE GIFTS THAT SOCIAL MEDIA BROUGHT ME
I wrote a post by this title well over two years ago and it remains one of my favorite posts, because the story it tells is so very powerful. (Edited because the original post was on a blog that no longer exists, so I took down the link).
Through Social Media I:
met my love.
met new and amazing clients.
made fabulous new friends around the globe.
took those connections offline and changed my life.
I don’t claim to be a guru, expert, maven or even an official. I am simply a real estate agent in Western MA who decided years ago to embark on a journey into social media and internet networking and never looked back.
Why am I re-hashing this post?
Well, beside the fact that I think it is darn good and features the amazing likes of: Morriss Partee (my sweetie), Lisa Wray, Diane Guercio, Christine Pilch, Jaclyn Stevenson, Kelly and Tom Galanis, Julianne Krutka, Val Nelson and so many more Western MA social media noteables, it is also a wonderful tale of how I truly feel social media is meant to operate.
Here is my top ten gifts that social media brought me:Social media has brought me:
1- Friends all over the country and friends near me
2- My partner, my love, Morriss.
3- My business partner and best girlfriend, Diane
4- Business (so many closed sales now)
5- A support network like no other, when I am down…these people pick me up. When I am celebrating, they cheer alongside.
6- Travel and new experiences
7- Education…I ask a lot of questions and valuable answers are given.
8- Opportunities for personal and business growth
9- A fresh awareness of the power of connectivity and the law of attraction
10- FUN!
So, why do I discuss this now? Well folks, if you have made it this far, you should be making a reservation for PodCamp Western MA IV so that you can come make your own unique connections and learn the magic that is social media.
Social media and specifically PodCamp Western MA changed my life in so many ways and this is the social media event that I look forward to each year. You will have to take my word on it…I have been to so many other events all over the country and they are always great, but no other is as wonderful as PodCamp Western MA.
