Margaret and Tim KinzlerYesterday we wrapped up two filled-to-overflowing days of CyberProfessionals sharing knowledge, food, and lots of talk. From my photos you might think all we did was eat, but really the rest of the time I was so busy listening and taking notes that I hardly got the camera out.

Since we're the CyberPros, of course we focused on all things electronic. As usual, I learned a lot. Kristal Kraft did a presentation (using my AR blog as an example!) that taught us more about tags and what they mean to search engines. Fascinating stuff, and helpful to understand when adding tags to your posts.

Dessert PlateTim Kinzler, a most terrific agent and photographer, gave a presentation on health and weight loss. You might not think of that as a cyber-subject, but if we're not healthy we can't very well do a good job, can we? Tim says it's not how much you exercise, it is what you put in your mouth. So instead of having chocolate at the break, I went and talked to Tim for inspiration. I think a hug can be as good as chocolate, if you like the hugger.

Tim's guidance helped – some – later when we all went to the Melting Pot for dinner. Anyone remember fondue parties from the 1970's? Well the Melting Pot is for you. We had a great time and finished off with the luscious dessert plate, all ready for dipping in chocolate!

Linda Davis Kristal KraftLes Dips InI have to give a special thanks to CyberPros "Mom," Linda Davis, who does fantastic job keeping us organized and moving forward. Linda was there at the first meeting in 1995, and is still making sure our meetings are interesting and successful. That's Linda with Kristal Kraft.

And if Linda is Mom, then Les Sulgrove is the CyberPros "Dad." He handles all the computer tech stuff for our meetings, and obviously enjoys a good chocolate-dipped dessert. He also took this picture of one terrific group.

Hi Margaret,

Thanks for the info. I've been wondering if this was part of the Hainge group, now I see it's not. Looks like you've shared a lot of great info. I hope to read some more posting on it. Is that also Sharon Sims I see in the photo? That girl is everywhere, lol.

BTW, we also have a Melting Pot in our little town of Brea, CA. Love it, been there a few times...but too much food, I can't resist.

Margaret - How fun! One of these days I'm going to have to mosey on up to your area!

It looks like a strong group professionals.  I bet Kristal's presentation made the class worth it.

Lynda, Yep that is the one and only wonderful Sharon Simms next to me and her daughter, Tami.

Randy, Kristal's presentation was wonderful...Each and every one of the CyberPros are teachers, coaches, speakers, leaders and top producers in our industry. Each and every presentation was worth the trip. There is no "key note" speaker. Everyone is a hightlight  and no one wants to miss even one presentation.

 

My dear Ed, You are one special man! (Ed is standing next to Kristal)

 What Margaret   ED failed to mention was that the meeting was a success because of people like her him.  She He is a kind and sharing person who adds a great deal to the group.  There are those who have an ability to inspire others; she  he is one of them.  Thank you Margaret ED for all you bring to the table (and not the dinner table).

Margaret, I love chocolate. These posts that talk about food always send me to the refrigerator or cabinet : ) Sounds like the fellowship was grand!

Gary,This is a grand group and the chocolate was the "icing" on a wonderful 2 day conference.

05/01/2008 08:33 PM by Margaret Rome- Baltimore, Md.-HomeRome.com (TREC-Sell Your Home With Margaret Rome)


Margaret, you are welcome. None expected on forming the group, my ThemThem from everyone is seeing the posts that are going into the Group. It's so invigorating for me.

What a great group, CyberPros.  I checked the website and plan to take sometime to go through it again.  Thanks, and thanks again, it's only 8am and I'm already craving chocolate!
