2014 Summertime MeetUps - Can You Host?

By
Services for Real Estate Pros with ActiveRain, Community Manager

Break out the flip-flops and sunscreen, it's MeetUp time! Are you ready to hang out with some awesome people again? Maybe you're new to AR but want to get out from behind the computer and relax with some Rainers who know good business.  The time is almost here!

You might be asking what a MeetUp is.  Well, it's an informal get together for members of ActiveRain to hang out and talk business, sports, relationships or whatever floats your boat.  Everyone is on their own for drinks/food; the host is only responsible for choosing a place, date and time.  

Hosts have found success with happy hours, breakfasts and lunches.  The host will pick a restaurant or bar of their choosing and time.  I'll add the info to my locations list that will come out soon.  Hosts can also blog about their upcoming MeetUp and invite their sphere as well.  All real estate professionals are encouraged to attend.

Summertime MeetUps will happen between August 4th and August 15th.  

I am looking for hosts! If you're available to host a MeetUp between 8/4 and 8/15 please email kerrie@activerain.com the date, time, venue name and full venue address (please include zip).

Hosts will receive 2500 points and attendees will receive 1000 points for showing up!

I will begin to compile a list of all MeetUp Locations and update the list as they roll in.  Hosts, please have your information sent to me as soon as you can.  

I'm very excited for our Summertime MeetUps!  I hope this round is just as successful as previous ones.

Let it Rain!

The meet-ups I've attended have been super - it was great to actually see people "in the flesh" that I sort of felt I knew already from the AR online community.
