Hello Readers –
I hope each and every one of you had a wonderful holiday.
I want to share some tid bits on the California REALTOR® EXPO 2006 in Long beach, Ca. that was put on by the California Association of Realtors® C.A.R. October 17th – 19th.
myAgentPHONE™ was a major sponsor this year for the EXPO and I am happy to report that it was an amazing success. Not just for myAgentPHONE™ but also for the EXPO, the vendors and all of the attendees.
The EXPO had over 12,000 REALTORS®, as well as thousands of California's key franchise execs, top producers, and movers and shakers. According to Joel Singer, Executive Vice President of C.A.R., this EXPO had a record breaking turn out. If you haven’t been to one of these events across the country, you MUST look to attend an upcoming event in your area. It is the perfect environment for educational, networking and professional development opportunities. Also a great way to learn about the latest and greatest technologies available to use in your business..
This year they had a special pre-EXPO event, Tech Tuesday, which featured a full day of comprehensive training geared toward assisting today's REALTOR® to stay on the cutting edge of real estate technology.
I was one of the invited speakers for this event and my topic was “Turning Your Phone into a Lead Generation Machine.” I must say, we filled the seats and rocked the house! I was thankful for the opportunity to speak on this topic. It was very evident that I was able to open many of my attendees’ eyes to how easy it really can be to sell real estate in today’s market by leveraging technology. Although not as powerful as in person, this is what I attempt to do for you with our blog. Send me an email and let me know if you would like a copy of the Power Point presentation that I used.
According to many at the EXPO we had one of the most modern, hip and busy booths this year. With hip house music playing from the “Chill” station on XM radio, many people came by to just relax on our couches or dance in our booth. myAgentPHONE™ staff and visiting attendees had a great time! Oh and of course we signed up many new myAgentPHONE™ subscribers throughout the event. In fact, we were still taking orders as they were pulling up the carpets at the end of the event.
Thank you C.A.R. You did a fantastic job and we can’t wait until next year!
I encourage each and every one of you to find an upcoming Industry State Association Trade Show in your area and GO and expand your knowledge!
Until next time,
Damien Zamora
CEO/President
