Today I had the opportunity to speak to a phenomenal Chicago organization called SPARKt founded by my friend Kit Mueller. This event has proven to be THE real estate (and outside industry) technology event of the midwest, and today did not disappoint.
For my presentation I was asked to discuss “Rules for a Changing Game” and how social media and other influences will forever change the real estate industry. Thanks to a couple of highly influential people by the names of David Armano (read his blog here) and Peter Kim (read his blog here)I was able to put together the following presentation.
The Humanizing of the Social Web for Business 4-29-09 – Dollinger
Many of the thoughts and ideas for this presentation came from the below stroke of genius orchestrated by Peter Kim in his whitepaper entitled “Social Media Predictions 2009″.
Social Media Predictions for 2009
As I said in my presentation, I believe that the biggest obstacle the real estate industry faces today is itself. By looking outside the box to the individuals included in Peter’s whitepaper, I believe the answers are there waiting to be discovered.
