Can’t attend the whole convention? Try a one day pass!
June 25, 2008
Let’s get hypothetical for a minute. Assume, just for the sake of argument, that you can’t attend the entire VAR Convention & Expo. Of course this isn’t the case. You’d be downright silly to pass on the full convention registration, with everything included in the price of admission, it’s the best value. But hypothetically speaking, you’ve determined you just can’t make the whole thing. We have an option for you, and it’s not hypothetical.
You can purchase a one-day pass for VAR’s Convention & Expo 2008 for as low as $145. Here are summaries of what you can expect on the days for which a one-day pass is available:
Friday, September 26 (full schedule)
Unofficially, I’m calling Friday “Fun Day.” Here are some of the highlights:
- First timer coffee hour
- Trend/Countertrend keynote with Robyn Waters
- Virginia Real Estate BloggerCon 3.0
- Out of the Cockpit and Into the Cabin with Marc Davison
- A New Look At Buyer Agency: Putting the Client First with Lem Marshall
- Expo Hall Grand Opening Reception
- Late night afterparty with Rapport (unofficial event)
Saturday, September 27 (full schedule)
And I’m calling Saturday “WOM & Networking Day.” No, it’s not as catchy as Fun Day, I know. This fact notwithstanding, here are the Saturday highlights:
- Breakfast in the Expo Hall
- Word of Mouth Marketing keynote with Andy Sernovitz
- Social Media for the Technologically Challenged with Tony Arko & Danilo Bogdanovic
- Pump Up Your Referral Network: Speed Networking
- Death, Divorce and Bankruptcy: Are You Ready for Some Football? with Lem Marshall
- Inaugural Party, a harbor cruise to toast 2009 VAR President, John Powell (extra fee if buying a one-day pass, included with full convention registration)
- Spontaneous, unscripted post-Inaugural Party merrymaking and hijinx (unofficial event)
Sunday, September 28 (full schedule)
I call Sunday “Short Day.” Not because you can wear shorts (well, who’s gonna stop you, really), but because it’s only half a day. Here’s what you get for your one half-day registration (as low as $45).
- REALTOR® of the Year presentation
- Get Back in the Box: Innovation from the Inside Out with Douglas Rushkoff
So of course, hypothetically speaking, if you can’t attend all of VAR’s Convention & Expo 2008, clearly you have options. And some very good ones, at that.
