Sightseeing in NYC at Inman Connect
This was started 3 days ago:
I love New York. Every time I have visited it has been for exchange of ideas, which is honestly what I live for.
The first time I came to the city, it was for REBarCamp NYC and Inman Connect last January. I came down really not knowing what to expect- “Bar Camp? What IS that?”- and went away with a different perception of what changes were going to be coming in the real estate industry, but not only that. There was a strong validation factor of what I was already doing.
The next time I visited was when I went to a Lucky Strike Social Media Club meeting, and frankly if I could go to more I would. The people are brilliant, and the discussion about video was just awesome.
And then I am back now. Every time I go to a session without paper and pen, I find myself scrambling for scraps of paper to write down the name of a new app or jot down a new twist on an old idea.
And today I am home…
trying to organize my thoughts and plan out exactly HOW I am going to implement the things I have learned. And, you know, it really isn’t that I heard anything truly earth-shattering. It is more that I have heard over and over again that what Gerry and I are doing in social media for Towne & Country – and the new ideas that we want to implement- WORK. I think we have brought home more than enough excitement to last the year.
The beauty of these things is you see people putting systems in place that appear to be overwhelming- HOW will I have time to do all of that work? But the beauty of it is that once the systems are in place and running, everything is- well, run by that system. It can be done.
The face of Real Estate is changing.
