Nice to meet you...

I was just thinking that with all of the other national conventions that are out there for NAR, for the different franchises, etc., how fun would it be if P2 had a national/international convention where we could all meet, network, hang out, maybe have some training sessions. Has anything like this been discussed in the past. Does it go on and I just haven't noticed? I know we are all busy working but, for me, this is something that I think would be a lot of fun. Honestly, I am not that interested in meeting all of the other Realtors from my franchise, but I think it would be entertaining, educational, and networking time well spent to meet my fellow P2ers! What do you guys think?

Member Since '03	John Bourassa said: Great idea, Marcia. I think it costs just the same to go to a regional convention as it does a national. Besides, a regional would only limit us to a few members. Therefore, I suggest an national in Vegas (there are other things to do there other than gambling) or I am open to anywhere else. John May 6, 2007 8:42 AM

It would be fun to meet everyone and thank them in person for all the great things they have taught me through this forum! I will be glad to assist with making hotel and other arrangements.

Something to consider. The hotel rooms are cheaper, too. I got my brother in law a room last weekend over River Run Week (premium, pretty much booked solid) for 99 bucks a night and he whined -- rooms usually 29 - 49/night. :) Yesterday, I booked a room at Mandalay Bay LV for a concert we're going to in August -- 225 was the cheapest. So I tried Hard Rock which is my faaaaavorite place to stay in Vegas. . . no availability, 3 1/2 months in advance for one Saturday night! Am I prejudiced because I'm only a mile from Laughlin? Guilty. But even if it's in Vegas, I'll be there . . . May 6, 2007 12:26 PM

Member Since '07	Harris Home Team said: I was thinking Vegas when I first thought of the idea. But I am not opposed to Laughlin. I think it would be great fun and we could learn a lot from each other. Plus the networking. I am getting excited just thinking about it!! May 6, 2007 12:41 PM

Member Since '05	Anastasia Boyd said: Great idea Marcia! I just got back from a Realty Executives' convention in Vegas (Caesar's Palace) and it was great. One thing for sure... I believe we'd all come back with a greater understanding of what we can do with our web sites which should certainly prove more worthwhile than another motivational speaker grinding out a new line! Attendees wouldn't necessarily be on Point 2 now but could go so they would have a real "leg up" start! Let's get Point 2 going on this. I'm in! Anastasia May 6, 2007 4:19 PM
Member Since '05	Lonn Dugan said: Maybe a P2Cru Hospitality Party or pre-show meeting, post show meeting at the next NAR ? May 6, 2007 5:13 PM
Member Since '06	Todd Clark said: This sounds like it is already set up. DANG! Go fishing for one day and look what happens you go and plan a big convention in Vegas - lol May 6, 2007 6:10 PM

Member Since '07	Harris Home Team said: Now the question is...how do we get P2 as excited about this as we are and put it on? I think there would be financial benefit for them as I would expect they could put on educational classes about the benefits of P2 and all of their services to encourage upgrades and purchase of the add ons like neighborhoods and spotlight advertising. Maybe running it in conjunction with the next NAR event would be the most likely venue... Hey, P2! Are you listening? :) May 6, 2007 6:58 PM
Member Since '07	Candice A Donofrio said: P2 needs to pay Marcia a happy fee for the great idea! :) May 6, 2007 7:03 PM

Member Since '04	Danny Frank said: Marcia, Just show them how to make a dime and they will do it. How many booths will be allowed in the trade show, how much will they charge us to attend, but it was our idea..... Just show them the money and it will happen. May 7, 2007 5:41 AM
Member Since '07	Scott Simmons said: No kidding Danny when they realize how much they are leaving on the table by not having a convention they will start one. maybe the users on P2 need a guild and have our own convention. May 7, 2007 7:46 AM

Member Since '04	Mary Welch said: Can you really believe this motley crue of P2's meeting in Vegas? We would all be talking about it (or denying it) for years-what fun!! May 7, 2007 6:29 PM
Member Since '05	Carol and Steve Coldwell Banker Parker Realty said: That sounds fun! Steve was in Vegas years ago and has always wanted to return. Just don't make it the weekend of Sept 8th as that is our wedding. And no....we don't want a Vegas wedding. (but maybe a honeymoon) Keep us posted! May 8, 2007 5:54 PM
