I was contacted by an Associated Press reporter who was writing a story on the housing market in the Northeast, and the story ran yesterday. This is the 2nd time in a month I have been contacted by a national news outlet with a subsequently appearance in their venue. Last month it was ABC World News. You should have seen my 2-year old son go nuts when he saw Daddy on the TV.
This time around, I asked the reporter how she found me, and she said "Active Rain."
The only appropriate thing to say is THANK YOU, Active Rain.

One of my clients was also interviewed, and she is quoted in the story. Since the object of all marketing is to get found, it is a powerful testimony to consistent blogging that if a reporter can find me, so can a consumer. And they are.
