What was the best thing about being at Inman’s Real Estate Connect NYC 08?

Meeting people. People I’ve “known” for awhile through on-line acquaintance, people I’ve heard of and people I hadn’t. Agents, Brokers CEO’s, Directors, VP’s, Founders, A-list professional bloggers, reporters and more.

It’s all about networking…

    I hope to see my card on that table after ConnectSF 2008Good reminder and illustration of why we should attend these events. You meet dynamic people and things start o happen.Bryant aka radicalcoach
  • I couldn't agree more!  It was my pleasure meeting you again.  Fine job on the panel by the way.
  • Great to meet you at INMAN. Thanks for the blogging tips and tricks. I look forward to staying in touch. I see my business card in the photo - very cool. It's the one with the tortoises. Best Regards.
  • Great to see you Jay. Glad we finally got to meet in person!
  • It was good seeing you again.

    Seeing my card on that table reminds me of how cool yours was with nothing else, but simply your blog address. See you in SF!
  • Good post. The best part of being a Mike Ferry Agent was the fact that they all got together and networked. Were all working together to do something with similar experiences.
  • it was great to meet you at the inman conference, please call or email me if you plan to come to Aventura, Florida.
  • I completely agree having come up from New Zealand to attend I consider the time and cost well worthwhile.

    These conferences (this is my second) are the best in the industry.They are well resources with excellent panelists (yourself included), excellent topics and a lack of fluff - you go there to meet people, see the latest trends and to get a quick recharge of the batteries - bring on SF in August!

    Also one other highlight for me was discovering so many competent bloggers - I am still a newby on our site (3 months) but the lessons to be learnt are enormous. One enlightment was Rachel Natalie Klein and here awesome videoblog - www.intothebox.tv - I have always been skeptical of videoblogging until I saw this.

    Jay -it was nice meeting you and talking to you at the AR party. I hope I gave you my card:)
  • Hi Faina! Yep, you're in there... I think your card is in the top right corner under the mostly black one
  • It is always a great joy and pleasure to spend time with you Jay. You are the flower growing in the desert filled with prickly cacti :)
  • I hope I get to meet & connect with you all next time. I wanted to make it to SF but just couldn't swing it : (
  • Pretty cool that you shout out for making online friends... Maybe we will meet one day too...
  • That's a lot of business cards. It's always important to take a business card. It helps ya remember a person's name and its a reminder to give that person a call and maybe you can make some money together.
  • You just reminded me of a stack of cards I have on my desk, which serve no purpose right now but to take up space. I'll go through them and see if can find any lucrative connections.
  • Nice writing style. Looking forward to reading more from you
