Thirty days until ‘go-time’

Welcome to the Virginia Association of REALTORS® Annual Convention & Expo 2007 blog.

With just 30 days until our 87th Convention & Expo, the VAR staff and volunteers are hard at work to deliver a first-rate experience that you’ll remember for years to come. We have dramatically upgraded our educational programming with nationally-known real estate experts to transfer the latest real estate knowledge to you, and inspirational personalities to help you get and stay perpetually motivated. Our evening events and social breaks give you plenty of time to do the real work of attending a conference: schmoozing with potential business partners, reconnecting with old friends and making new ones. And, you can earn your Quality Service Certified® designation in just a few hours with an optional ticketed Wednesday afternoon seminar.

To help you stay connected to the world outside the Virginia REALTOR® universe, our popular Cyber Cafe is back – with a twist! We have added a new feature to the Cyber Cafe to assist you in learning about emerging technology that will help you stay up-to-date on the changing real estate market and the latest bottom-line boosting business practices. If you’re confused about (or frightened by) the mere mention of the terms blog, podcast, wiki or RSS, you owe it to yourself to try out our new Social Media Lab, attached to the Cyber Cafe, at some point during the VAR Annual Convention & Expo.

You can follow this blog for the latest details on the VAR Annual Convention & Expo in one of three ways. 

  1. Create an e-mail subscription to receive new posts from this blog as they are published (we will never share your e-mail address with any third parties).
  2. If you’re already hip to RSS, you can also subscribe by RSS.
  3. But, if you aren’t ready for RSS just yet, just add http://var2007.wordpress.com to your favorites, write yourself a note to check back every day, and make plans to stop by the Social Media Lab so we can show you just how easy it is and how much time you’ll save to use RSS.

See you in Williamsburg!

    I like the comment about “emerging technology” and “the latest bottom-line boosting business practices”. You have to stay ahead or at least keep up otherwise you’ll get left behind. It’s nice to see VAR giving us information and tools that truly matter.

    See you down in Williamsburg.
