We all have different reasons for attending (or not attending) the NAR conventions.
For me, it's not the huge parties with thousands of people, nor is it the educational sessions, as good as some might be (there are so many other great educational sessions all year long), it's
- the trade show. Some years there's not much new and a few hours will whisk me through - other years there are all kinds of new things, and two full days is not enough (lately it's been the former). The trade show is also a chance to connect with some of your current vendors - to find out what's new, how to better use what you have, and to address any issues you have or improvements you want. Face to face is always great.
- the international expo. Great chance to meet international colleagues and look at what's happening in other countries - all in one place.
- the "outside" meetings of various groups, from ActiveRain to impromptu cyber agent or luxury agent gatherings
- the chance to see favored colleagues who are there for their own reasons.
What's in the NAR convention for you?
