Tech highlights from NC/SC Realtor Convention

I attended the NC/SC Realtors Convention held in Savannha, GA on Sept 9-11.  The keynote speaker was none other than Brian Copeland. You can check out a brief intro here.

Listed below are a few of the speakers for the educational sessions:



There was so much information I am still deciphering it all.  I have listed below some of the APPS that were recommended from the Barcamp.  Check them out.

Glympse
Contxts
Genius Scan
Magic plan
Wunderlist

Bitcasa

Photo Apps
Photosynth
LightTrac

One of the Sessions I attended was on Video Marketing by Doug Devitre. Best takeaway was about Keyword search - how to search highest search volume and the lowest competition.

If you can- you must try to attend next year's convention!!!  what a great opportunity to network, learn and have fun!!

Sign up for the Coastal Carolina Association of Realtors Mini-Conference on October 22, 2012.
