We all know some great writers in the Rain. Payback time! Click this link for the Innovator Awards Real Estate Connect San Francisco 2009 info. This event is scheduled to take place Aug 5, 2009 – Aug 7, 2009 at the Palace Hotel, San Francisco.
Time to quote the website so I don't mess this puppy up:
Ready? Read: "The Inman Innovator Awards recognize companies that use technology and innovation to enhance the real estate transaction and experience for consumers and real estate professionals. In addition, an annual award honors one individual who embodies the spirit of real estate innovation."
"The Inman News Innovator Awards were first awarded in 1997. Prior Innovator Award winners include ActiveRain, Roost, Estately, AgentGenius, Frontdoor, vFlyer, Altos Research, Google Earth, Curbed.com, NY Times Real Estate, Metrocities Mortgage, Cendant LeadRouter, Fidelity PHD, E*TRADE, E-LOAN, Lending Tree, Coldwell Banker Real Estate Corporation, and many other innovative companies."
Here's the part that I love: There are five categories * Most Innovative Brokerage or Franchise * Most Innovative New Technology * Most Innovative Web Service * Most Innovative Blog * Most Innovative Media Site.
Notice the bold on BLOG. I want you guys to click this link for the on-line nomination form and enter as many categories there as you like. Show your fave writers some mad link love by sending Inman News to check out their blogs. If you have a team blog, your team writers should be trying to turn yourselves into the next AgentGenius.com (LMAO).
Tell all of your blogging buddy friends to stand up and be counted. This is an awesome event with wonderful awards and mad media coverage.
Time to get your Social Media 2.0 skills cracking and fire up your blogs. Show me the eye candy! Show me the video! Show me what you got! The whole world will be watching. Have at it people!!!
