In case you didn't hear, Virtual Real Estate BarCamp will be held online on Tuesday, November 17th. The original goal was to get 1,000 registered attendees and at the time of this blog post, there are more than 1,500 registered. For all those of you who have not had the chance to attend an RE BarCamp in person, now is the time to get in on the buzz.
Not sure what the buzz is all about?
As described by Todd Carpenter, the Social Media Director of the National Association of REALTORS®:
"The most interesting thing about a BarCamp is that it is user/attendant created: the program is developed by the attendees at the event, using big whiteboards upon which a schedule is hastily put together, that can be rewritten or overwritten by attendees to optimize the days' events. The goal of BarCamp is to reach out to new people who will increase the common intelligence about new technologies, and to create opportunities for cross-fertilization between people and new ideas."
As an attendee of the events in Chicago and Indianapolis, I have had the good fortune to experience the phenomena that has become known as RE BarCamp. This led me to introduce this craze to my local association of RELATORS® here in Northwest Indiana.
Through a collective synergy with the Greater Northwest Indiana Association of REALTORS® (GNIAR), Benchmark Mortgageis proud to sponsor our local In-Office live event to coincide with the Virtual RE BarCamp webinars. Furthermore, I personally will be hosting the event with our very own Nichole Odijk, GNIAR Director of Communications. If you're on Facebook, visit our event page for details.
