How can you make the most of your experience? Last year’s conference attendees shared the following tips:
“I sought out education session panelists, along with CCIMs from all over the world, to discuss various topics. Get out there and introduce yourself, and put some time in at the CCIM business meetings to find out what is going on with the national group. You never know what you might learn or whom you may meet.” — Chad Gleason, CCIM, principal with Gleason & Co. in Kent, Wash.
“[Networking] takes place in the foyers, restaurants, and bars around the event.” — Michael Anderson, CCIM, owner of Real Source in Salt Lake City
“Have a backup battery for your phone and bring a notepad — or in today’s technological world, your iPad or tablet.” — Nicholas L. Miner, CCIM, vice president with Orion Investment Real Estate in Tempe, Ariz.
“Research the local CCIM chapter and know what events are being planned.” — Bobbie Mastracci, CCIM, designated broker/principal with Phoenix West Commercial in Litchfield Park, Ariz.
“You want others out there to see that you’re attending. In order to be on the attendee list and communication forums prior to the event, you need to be signed up.” — Eddie Blanton, CCIM, vice president/senior advisor with Re/Max Executive Realty in Charlotte, N.C.
