Marc Rasmussen named honorary member of TeamEric.

If you have been ANYWHERE on the real estate web world lately, you have heard about Marc Rasmussen's battle with the Sarasota Association of REALTORS and their abusive tactics in taking the authority that he has created/built over several years and taking it away.  Details are here. (Morgan on a personal note-you are doing a stellar job of advocating and supporting Marc...I have no idea of everything you've done, but what I have seen shows me a LOT about you. Kudos)

It is apparent to me that this is a simple act of jealousy by cowards. Redirecting the domain should have been enough. Period. The Board of the Sarasota Association of REALTORS is ALL culpable for their actions. (And I know at least one of them and it HURTS to say that.) If they disagree with their Board's actions to take the domain of one of their members, they should stand up and say so.

I wish I could help Marc more. As a TEAM, TeamEric has together decided to make Marc an honorary member of our team. This comes with some privileges as well. Chief among them is joining us on the GREAITW contest page as one of the Greatest Real Estate Agents in the World. Details forthcoming here.

To us @ TEAM ERIC, Marc, the word TEAM means something. You are part of ours.

To us here at REW the word COMMUNITY means something. Namely that we help each other, support each other, and work together.

Sure as heck wished the word ASSOCIATION meant something to the folks in Sarasota who are REALTORS.

Welcome to our team!  Glad to have you.  I've been posting my butt off (I wish) for your cause and have at least one more left (good thing I have so many blogs).  I will try to get those donations going and need to revisit my multiple blog posts to add the Paypal button.

I just feel like telling eveyone here at the REW community that, I LOVE YOU Guys!! I'm so blessed to have found such a great community that loves to give a helping hand, even when its not asked of them.

Especially you Eric, meeting you in person made me have even more respect for you and your ENORMES KIND heart!

Everyone ( ok ok just about ) everyone within our community is great.

Wow! I am wearing a huge grin right now. I really appreciate the support from everyone and to Eric for making me a team member. This community continues to amaze me.

I am going to make it a point to be more involved and active in this community. If any of you need help or anything from me in any way feel free to ask.

Marc with team Eric behind you, there is very little chance the Sarasota Association can do much harm for long .  All of us here know how much work goes into building a site and it is so much more than the URL.  We all learned the power of friendship in Nanaimo from Eric and how transforming it can be.

Congratulations Marc.  Too bad it's under these circumstances.
