RUNNING A SUCCESSFUL <strong>REIA</strong> MEETING<br />
A good friend of mine who's very successful in real estate and a<br />
variety of other businesses once said, "I'd rather not sit in an airplane<br />
while it's going down. Instead, I'd rather just jump out of the plane<br />
and build my parachute on the way down." While that sounds a little<br />
scary, it's worked out pretty well for him. I would encourage you <strong>to</strong><br />
take the same approach in our marketing plan.<br />
All of the suggestions in this chapter can be used <strong>to</strong>gether. A<br />
successful promotional campaign will make use of a variety of<br />
different methods that all complement each other. These methods<br />
work <strong>to</strong>gether, each one strengthening the other, until you've created<br />
a truly irresistible campaign that has people beating down the doors<br />
<strong>to</strong> your event.<br />
Always keep the big picture in mind and develop a <strong>to</strong>tal campaign<br />
strategy that targets as many different niches, groups, and<br />
individuals as possible. While each one of these methods is helpful,<br />
using them <strong>to</strong>gether is what makes them truly powerful. Take some<br />
time <strong>to</strong> create a full-featured campaign strategy that not only focuses<br />
on an individual event but considers the success of the group and all<br />
future events as well. This is the key <strong>to</strong> hosting one incredibly<br />
popular event after another.<br />
