]]> Comment on Why Attend Convention? by Sarah Johnson http://johnsonhl.wordpress.com/2009/09/24/why-attend-convention/#comment-587 Sarah Johnson Thu, 24 Sep 2009 20:30:41 +0000 http://johnsonhl.wordpress.com/?p=762#comment-587 I agree. These generations want to gather the facts and then decide whether attending the convention, serving on the Board etc. is directly relevant to their business. Xers don't want to be told they want it to be their idea. I am here to say that these activities have had a direct impact on my financial bottom line. Better yet... they have had an indirect impact on my real estate career overall. They help keep burn out at bay. I also learned very early that it is ok to ask successful people what did and did not work for them. Most often they are flattered and more than willing to share their knowledge and experience. There is no sense in reinventing the wheel. I am also here to remind the Xers that a huge majority of our buyers are boomers too. We need to be relevant to them....and that means building "real life" relationships with them. Social networking alone will not be enough. I agree.

We are having problems getting the "younger" agents to sign up for committees or to take on leadership responsibilities within the Realtor organization. This is a very interesting topic and it would be great to hear some feedback from the GenXer's and GenYer's. We need to understand as there will be a time that we will need them to fill the shoes of the leaders of today. Maybe it means doing things differently, but whatever the changes may bring we need them.
