Real-Time Networking Event in the Spirit of Active Rain!

By Craig Schiller

I know I have been kinda quiet in the rain... but it has been VERY busy here at Real Estaging.

However... for all my Chicago-land Active Rain collogues I am VERY proud to announce a very cool event that I am co-sponsoring along with 2 other Active Rain Members. (Tripti Kasal of Real Living Infinity and Joe Zekus of YoChicago.)

The event embodies the SPIRIT of what Active Rain makes possible... in REAL TIME. AND... the cool thing about the seminar is that it is a networking event that teaches real time networking skills!

After attending a SIMILAR event, geared to the general business population, I JUMPED at the opportunity to co-sponsor this event tailored to the real estate professional. It is worth WAY more than the 20 bucks they are charging! Guaranteed!

The E-Flyer below gives you all the details.

PLEASE JOIN US... this could be Chicago-land's FIRST (informal) Active Rain gathering.

POST SCRIPT: Besure to read Yo-Joe's comment below... he is throwing in some goodies! THANKS JOE!

Craig,

Just wanted to thank you and Tripti for putting this event together and including us.

For those who might not know the location, Father & Son has plenty of adjacent free parking, and it's easy to access off the North Ave exit on the Kennedy.

YoChicago will be giving away a limited number of free Yo t-shirts (men's and women's) at the event, and we'll also do a prize drawing for a free video. The video will feature a real state agent showing us around a piece of the city of Chicago where he / she does business. We'll post about the video on YoChicago and keep it live on YouTube.

Perhaps the next event could occur in cyberspace. That way we can learn cyberspace networking skills - and begin to have another source for referrals to our rainer colleagues. Good luck with the conference.

I've been wondering where you were hiding! I'm glad your excuse is work related, that's what we all want to hear. Congratulations on the event, sounds very interesting....too bad I will not be in Chicago anytime soon.

Glad to hear you've been busy with you business,Craig. I thought maybe it was something I said. You know I would be there if it was closer. I think you should be charging more if you are co-sponsoring the event! ;)
