The IVAA (International Virtual Assistants Association) is having its first annual convention in Las Vegas on October 23 – 25, 2002. I have been honored by them to be their main keynoter for this very exciting event. Now you might be wondering how this has anything to do with your real estate career —literally everything if you are smart!

Think about this for a moment: there are thousands of Virtual Assistants who are ready, willing, and able to handle the "details" and manage the success of even greater numbers of real estate professionals. The key to this happening in a big way is to get these two groups to know each other better, and that's the potential offered by this important conference.

The focus of my keynote message to the attending VAs is how they can work synergistically with you so that both parties win. As a busy real estate professional you are only concerned about doing what you love to do and getting paid well and having the free time to enjoy your success. These VAs know how to help you achieve this dream with the least amount of effort and expense. Likewise, VAs want to work with and express their God-given talents to help sales associates and brokers become consistently and growingly successful —from a distance. It truly is a win-win scenario for all parties involved.

Meet Your Future VA (gasp!) In Person

To get the breezes of possibility blowing for some of us requires taking initial baby steps, rather than plunging right into a VA relationship. It is precisely for this reason that this convention holds so much opportunity for you to check out for yourself what it means to work with your own VA. Through a unique arrangement with IVAA President Terri Romine and myself, IVAA will be offering a special attendance package for real estate professionals. This will include a powerful "Meet The VAs" session where you can meet with real live VAs for 10 - 15 minutes at a time and ask them anything you want before switching to another VA and doing it all over again. This particular session is an incredible opportunity for you to get a first hand feel of what it might be like to work with someone who can literally transform your career.

They have made it very attractive for attending Realtors.  Registration is only $49 (which includes my keynote and the "Meet The VAs" session) which is a fraction of what VAs have to pay to attend the conference. 

If there is any chance you can make this ground breaking convention, do so (especially for all of you already located in the Las Vegas area). Make a commitment to take control of your business and personal destiny by exploring the incredible opportunities in working with highly skilled Virtual Assistants. And in doing so, you just might turn your business into a formidable force of nature!
