1. You already know everything there is to know about real estate, marketing, technology, and business strategies. If you have mastered each of these areas, then give the $150 as an extra tip to your private jet pilot as you most certainly roll like that.

2. Barack Obama was unavailable for the keynote. If you were only coming to see the President, then you can stay home. However, Dave Jenks, yes that Dave Jenks: co-author of “Shift” and “The Millionaire Real Estate Agent”, will be the keynote and he may be worth the $150 by himself.

3. You are morbidly afraid of friendly smart people. REtechSouth will be crawling with the smartest people in the real estate industry and rumor has it they are all very friendly and approachable. Stay home if you can’t stand meeting smart people who are actually nice to you.

4. You think Google is fake. If you believe wrestling is real but landing on the moon and all that internet stuff that came later is fake, then stay home and spend the $150 for the next wrestling event on pay-per-view.

5. You like doing things the hardest way possible. All of the tips, tools and technologies presented at REtechSouth are simple to use and will take up very little of your time. It’s best for you stay home and try to reinvent the wheel, design a better paper clip, or walk and chew gum - as these things are way harder to do than anything shared at REtechSouth.

6. You believe having fun is for losers. If you’d rather be miserable than happy, then do not show up at REtechSouth. There will be live music, entertaining speakers, cool visuals, and it all ends with a cash bar networking happy hour.

7. You’re married to Brad Nix or Matt Fagioli. These guys have been consumed with making REtechSouth a kick ass event for almost 5 months and their wives are certainly tired of hearing about the newest ‘dynamite speaker’ or latest ‘elite sponsor’. So stay home and enjoy a day without REtechSouth only if you are married to Brad or Matt.

Unless one of the 7 above apply, then you should hurry up and take advantage of this $25 off discount code: http://retechsouth.eventbrite.com/?discount=AtlantaRain and get your butt down south for REtechSouth, March 20th, Gwinnet Center. See you there!

1)  I'd like to think so, but I'll tip my pilot anyway...

2)  I can see Obama anytime I turn on the TV...

3) I'm a little introverted, but I'll get over it.

4) Whats Google and where is my AOL??  Is Rowdy Roddy Piper still wrastlin?

5) What was that?  I'm busy stuffing envelopes and licking stamps...

6) How about some Guitar Hero?!?  I can wail!!

7) Poor ladies, good thing they include "through good times and Conference Planning' in marriage nuptuals...at least they'll be getting you both back shortly ;)

Brad - Jeff's number 6 is probably the true reason someone isn't going.  I don't have a good excuse.  Missing out on it isn't my idea of a good time.  Knowing you and what your vision is, I can imagine its going to be one awesome event.  Good luck and can't wait to hear how it went!

LOL Guitar Hero is not a bad idea - maybe we should throw one in the green room?

Brad...so looking forward to the event! I've been asked by a couple people about a Thursday night get together. Are there any plans for such a thing? If so, can you e-mail me so I can plan and contact some other people.

Also, any chance to get a list of who's attending so I don't miss someone I've been wanting to meet?

I know it's going to be awesome and info overload all at the same time!

I'm not sure what the plans are for Thursday night, but I imagine Friday night will see some after-event parties pop up.

As for who's coming, we're rolling out a conference networking site that allows everyone to plan their schedule for the day (so much going on it's hard to show on one site) and also begin networking with other attendees and even plan to meet up at the event.  Check it out at REtechSocial

Well, I certainly appreciate the $25 discount but that won't begin to cover my air fare from Hawaii to the east coast and back.  However, if it's in the Fall, perhaps I can combine it with visiting my new grandchild in Maryland and attend.  What is the date?

I like your way of marketing to agents.  Being an ex-IT person I often wonder what the other agents are not doing in the way of the internet.

I thought you were going to say "because it is a 5 hour airplane ride".  They really need to have something like that much closer to my home.

I'm anxiously counting down the days to RETech South.  Now if we can just figure who, when, and where the partying umm networking is taking place, I'll be set to go!  I hear the Hilton is the place to be on Thursday night.

Hey Brad it sounds like it is going to be a great event. I just came back from the Keller Williams Annual Convention so I got my fix for technology and networking. Dave Jenks and the ideas from Shift are worth the price of admission...or at least $149...enjoyed your humor. Take care.

Brad you and Matt have done an awesome job in organizing the event.

I can't wait to meet everyone !!!

The teaching will be great and I love smaller venues as you get more one on one time with everyone.

See you the 19th. (I'll reblog after it goes off the feature board)

Brad - you had me ROLLING! I need to find a way to get there. Is hitch-hiking still illegal? Oh crap - now I'm having fear that this comment is going to suck and I'll be on Todd Clark's Wall of Shame.

@castellum can I get fries with that?

 

@elizabeth brain freeze only occurs when drinking really cold drinks too fast.  we are not selling any kool aid at the event, but there will be a few cocktails available after the show

 

@kim  hitch-hiking would be the coolest way to get to REtechSouth, but maybe not the safest.  be careful on your way down.

Brad, I am looking forward to it.  BTW, I'll be driving a van for the Thursday Night dinner...  I'll try not to scare too many people.  I love Atlanta traffic...

You guys have worked so hard to organize this. I'm arriving early and leaving late. I also got to pay $13 at Sam's Club for a $100 travel voucher good at that hotel! I'm really looking forward to it!

Hi Brad!  STILL debating what to do--I planned to attend and now I have clients in on the morning of the 21st and I wanted to stay over the night after the conference... yada, yada!  When plans firm up as to when the AR 'reunion' is going to be, I'll probably make up my mind then!  I just need ONE more day in my week next week!!

Thanks Brad!  RE/MAX Communities has a commitment to those we serve . . . our Realtors/Associate Brokers and the real estate public . . . to be there to learn what others know and explore the future.  Thanks for working tirelessly to put it all together.  Plus, we saved $25 a ticket . . . made me feel kinda like Clark Howard . . .

Brad, I personally wanted to thank you for putting this together, and for allowing me to be a part of this!  I really enjoyed the event, and I look forward to your next one. I speak at a lot of events, but yours was very professional, and extremely well focused!
