A New Twist on REbarCamp - Virtual REbarCamp

By Matt Fagioli, Saturday, October 17, 2009.

Just got word about a very interesting new idea from Jim Cronin at Real Estate Tomato.  Jim is putting together the first ever virtual REbarCamp to be held on Nov 17th (2009) right after the NAR convention in San Diego.  A key aspect of most bar camps is the on-the-fly nature of the sessions.  Things just develop organically - based on who is there and whatever they want to talk about. 

This new bar camp will be a full day of predetermined webinars with unlimited participants. Having the schedule set in advance makes great sense because it would be really hard to manage potentially hundreds of subject/session ideas on event day.  Jim is also creating a framework where local agents can plan F2F (face to face) meetups that could happen all over the country - if enough people jump in to make it happen.  Should be a really cool day.  Can't wait to see how it all comes together. Jim, you can count on Inman to support this cool new concept.

By the way, there's also a "real" REbarCamp happening the day before NAR in San Diego.  REbarCamp San Diego is November 12 (2009) and Jim Marks is the organizer there.  San Diego looks like it's on pace to be the biggest REbarCamp so far in the 15 month history of the concept.

"San Diego looks like it's on pace to be the biggest REbarCamp so far in the 15 month history of the concept."

NO question SD REBC will rock, but let's not forget that it is not the size that matters, it's the participation. Too many (self included) can get too hung up on the numbers....

Is this camp focused for real estate agents or investors or both?

Jon, these camps have been attended by agents and brokers primarily, but the information about technology tools could certainly apply to any business. Plus, the virual bar camp will certainly reach a wider audience.

I also think you raise an interesting idea for
"RE investor barcamp"

You should definitely join in!

And hey, when you are looking for that priceless, face-to-face interaction, don't miss out on RE Barcamp San Francisco. It is always the day before Inman Connect. Be on the lookout for next year!

Iam looking forward to the Virtual Camp coming up and will go to another one in person. I went to the one in San Francisco and tied it in with a visit to my mother. Great Day.

Great idea Jim Corin!

Sometimes it is through networking that you business easily made known by the public. One of which is the affiliate marketing. Pay per click websites require you to register, and you'll have to get a minimum amount before you'll get paid out. You may not make much with get paid to click sites, but you CAN with affiliate marketing.
