Rodney Bartlett from Reachd talked about online video and gave a few real estate examples and non real estate examples of how online video can transform your business.
What is holding you back from online video?

====================
Our society is media hungry. 1,000s of video are posted and watched on the internet each day. Our society is also hungry for authenticity. Most internet viewers don’t want the polished and produced corporate video, but they’d like raw fresh uncut story. The story about a listing you are marketing or a neighborhood you are promoting or a cause you are championing.
Come to the May meetup and

We hold the Vancouver Real Estate Technology Meetup on the first Monday of every month. On April 7th 2008, we had Mike Blaney, the marketing guy, come to speak to our meetup group. Mike prepared 50 marketing tips for real estate agents to think about using in the real estate businesses. As usual, we video taped the session. Below is the video, it does not include all of the tips, only a random selection of them. For a complete list of the tips or more information about them, please contact Mike Blaney directly.
At the next RET Meetup Mike Blaney will deliver a fast and lively presentation touching on a wide range of marketing tips for Realtors and guarantees everyone will walk away with something that will help their marketing.
You will not only learn about dozens of cool tools, tips and techniques to help you in all aspects of your business, but you will also learn how to apply them to increase your business and save time and money.
The focus of the presentation will be on the 4 R?s and the 1 P of Realtor marketing. Prospecting, client Retention, client Referrals, Repeat client business and client Reactivation.
We will cover marketing tips related to branding, print advertising, online advertising, database marketing, social networking, email marketing, blogging, websites and web tools.
The team at Reachd ran around last night at the Vancouver Real Estate Technology Meetup to quickly interview a bunch of people about who they are, what they do and why they come out. Check out the video - you might see someone you know.
The team over at Reachd filmed the presentation so that anyone who missed it could check it out. It was cut into 3 parts. You can see the first part below and the second 2 over at the Reachd website.
Come down to Ceili’s Irish Pub to “Learn what Thomas Hobbs, Nine Inch Nails, Red Bull and Provident Security all have in common…. As well as what you can do to stand out from your competition and get noticed, without hiring ‘professionals’.”
The next Real Estate Technology Meetup is coming up on Monday, February 4, 2008 at 6:00 PM at Ceili’s Irish Pub in downtown Vancouver.

Many people have asked us to bring Michael back, so we have him back for an updated marketing talk. Look forward to seeing you all soon.
Here is a video with Rodney from Reachd.com interviewing yours truly about the creation of the Vancouver Real Estate Technology Meetups. Keep in mind that this is our second attempt at video and the ending is a little abrupt.
Last night was the 1 year anniversary of the Vancouver Real Estate Technology Meetup Group. Over the past year we have had lots of great speakers, tons of attendees and exceptional networking. We hit a milestone early in the development of the meetup where we are the largest real estate agent meetup in North America. We have 345 members!!
If you feel like your missing out, feel free to RSVP here for our next event.
Last night we did something a little different before the event. We actually interviewed some of the attendees on their thoughts, business and technology within the real estate business.
