Make Your List and Check It Twice

By Jessica Hickok

I’m a big list maker and checklist lover.  While gearing up for the big NAR Annual Conference and Expo coming up in just two short weeks in San Diego, I am in list-making overdrive.

However there is one list that I make that I would like to encourage every REALTOR® to do the same in preparation for the convention.  And that is a list of people you should attempt to meet IRL (in real life) while attending the sessions.  With so many of us on Twitter and Facebook, we all tend to flock together online but don’t make the effort to meet in the real world.

So make your IRL list and check it twice.  If you have a list, you won’t miss anyone.  Make an effort to get out and meet people.  Snap your picture with them while you’re at it and post it to Facebook.  After all, connecting with your peers is what makes the conference a success.
