Family Reunion 2008: Registration Deadline looming. Are you in?

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Realty Arts NC Broker License #235526

With a December 15 registration deadline for the $499 registration fee, have you registered?

Do you have your accommodations reserved?

I'm a little excited that Family Reunion will be in the Southeast this time.  I'm just hoping our Western US friends will find a way to attend. I know how tiring it is to fly across country for 4 days of maximum real estate immersion. 

Some of my coworkers will drive from Cary to Atlanta.  I'm waiting for Delta or AirTran to offer me a cheap RT fare, and will drive or carpool if I don't get a cheap flight.

Either way: I'm in!

Julie,

That is the KELLER WILLIAMS national "convention." 

We should have between 9,000 and 10,000 KW associates there.

Call out the National Guard!  ... LOL

And Thanks for asking!

Hi Mike - KW extended the $499 price until February 1. If I can get a few escrows opened between now and then, I'll probably make the trip east. I attended the last two in Las Vegas - made some great contacts and learned a few things, too!

John,

You mean I  popped the $499 before Christmas and didn't have to?

Shucks, now you have me worried about turnout...

I should get to Team Meeting on time some week...

LOL

Congratulations!

I'm on a crusade to have conventions for free....with all the travel, accommodations, food, and other expenses....getting someone to watch the business, and FRANCHISE FEES they should be free.  All convention goers should bring this up.....there is a large voice out here, over 450,000 REALTORS belong to a franchise.  Whether you think you do or don't pay a fee....YOU DO!  ASK FOR FREE!! my .02 cents, have fun Mike!

Dick,

AR is free!  Works for me!

I mention flying to Atlanta, because in a plane ful of people including some agents who drive 100 miles to the airport, I stand a better chance of picking up a referral than I do riding with a colleague in a car.

Another way to pay the tab.

Mike, look me up at family reunion and I will buy you a hamburger!

Dick, even if the conventions were free, we would still see the same folks there, the rest would still have an excuse why they can not go.  The same 20% doing 80% of the businesss.JMO

Thanks, Jeff!

Hey, I just booked RT air on AirTran for $119.80.

87.23 + Fees makes it $119.80.

Going to have to bump into Donald Trump on AirTran...

Mike, I am driving up to Atlanta since we are only about 300 miles.  I have a cabin in the mountains in North GA so I may spend one night up there before Family Reunion. 

119.80 round trip, that is awesome

Jeff,

I assume you will have a chauffer?

No?

Yes, my wife!!!!!!!! Actually,our team leader wants to rent a charter bus and load all of our agents and one other market centers agents up to Hotlanta.   With airfare as low as yours, you can buy me a steak.

I look forward to meeting you there. In the meantime, if you have anyone buying or selling in Panama City, I would love to work your referrals.

We talked about the bus idea, too.

I asked if it was the Beer Bus.

Down in flames..................

No referral-glomming opportunities either, anyway.
