Well the Department of Defense has honored its promise to release the names of all the Gitmo Detainees finally. Now the investigative reporters will have to track them all down Nike Air Max Zero 2020 Kopen , which will be a lot of work indeed to find all their family members to interview.


Good timing too, as these political reporters will definitely need something to do. Well that ought to give all the reporters something to do while the Press Secretary gets some much needed rest. Word is that guy was a super trooper working some 17-18 hours a day with no days off. Well until the Administration gets a new man or woman in there at least all the press will be busy tracking down all these International Terrorists.


Personally in looking at the whole Gitmo Detainee thing, well; I still think they should give them all swimming lessons when the next Cat III Hurricane comes by? You know take them out 5-6 miles and say okay your swimming lesson is to make it back to shore Nike Air Max Classic BW 2020 Kopen , and good luck and high tail it back there before the waves get to choppy or over 30 feet. Swimming lessons? Who knows one or two might make it? Go with me on this.


Some may say that is just a horrible thing to say. Indeed it is isn't it? Now then would you like to come over to my house and watch the 911 Towers Burn on a large screen high definition Television and watch the horror on people's faces as they jumped out of the windows of those hot buildings and fell to their deaths? Consider this in 2006.


Why conduct a home buying seminar ? (the benefits)
Seminars are a perfect complement to your personal marketing program. They're educational, popular and much more personal than any marketing piece. They can also position you as an authority, which can easily lead to future clients.


And who knows Nike Air Max 98 2020 Kopen , you might even have some fun and meet some nice people along the way!


Where to conduct a home buying seminar ? (the venue)
One of the first steps in conducting your seminar is to identify a location. When scouting out the location, be sure to ask yourself the following questions:


1. What will the venue cost?
Sometimes you can find an excellent location at no cost. If you happen to know the principal of your local high school, for example Nike Air Max 1 2020 Kopen , you may be able to use the school's auditorium for an evening seminar. Otherwise you'll have to rent some space. But the potential gains far outweigh the small price you'll pay!


2. Can the venue support your presentation?
When you've identified a possible venue for your presentation, visit the site to see what it offers. Does it have adequate parking? Does it have a PowerPoint projector (if you need one)? How many people can it hold? Is it conveniently located? (Giving directions will be much easier if it is.)


3. Can the venue support 'repeat performances??
I recommend making your home buying seminar a regular event. Word spreads over time, and your audience will likely grow as well. Of course Nike Air Max 95 2020 Kopen , you might have a 'standing room only? situation on your first performance. It happens.


Following a regular schedule can also help with PR. Imagine the favorable exposure you would get if your local news did a spot on you for their real estate or home-buying segment! Conduct regular sessions and send press releases to the media, and that's exactly what could happen.


Some places you might look into as a possible venue:


The meeting room at your local library
Local YMCA or community center
High school or college auditorium
The meeting room of a nearby restaurant or hotel


How to conduct a home buying seminar ? (logistics and delivery)


The Sequence
It's usually best to follow a logical timeline of the home-buying process. This makes the presentation easier to follow.


Also, if you have co-presenters (a mortgage professional Nike Air Max 90 2020 Kopen , for instance, or maybe a home inspector), be sure to group all of their slides together. That way http://www.airmax2020nl.com/ , each presenter can take his or her turn and be done. The overall presentation will be more organized that way.


The Delivery
Deliver your presentation consistently, using your slides as cue cards. Don't let questions throw you off track. Answer questions briefly and politely, and then remind everyone about the Q&A period that will follow the presentation.


I recommend having a opening and closing script that you follow pretty closely Air Max 2020 Schoenen Kopen , and then improvising through the middle. The reasons for this are two-fold:


First, the opening and closing are important parts of your presentation. Memorizing a short script will help you remember everything you want to say.


Secondly, improvising the middle part will make your delivery more natural and keep you from having to memorize large amounts of information. Remember Nike Air Max 2020 Kopen , your slides will serve as cue cards to help you stay on track for the bulk of the presentation.


Promoting Your Seminar
How do you get the word out about your seminar? In short ? any way you can. Do you have a farming area that you send marketing mailers to? Well that's a great place to start.


Some other promotional ideas:


Promote the seminar on your website.
Add a blurb about it after your email signature block.
Mention it to clients (they're likely to have friends or colleagues in the market to buy).
If you have co-presenters, share the marketing. Multiple channels are better than one!
Mention it to former clients still in the area (an excellent word-of-mouth channel).
Announce it to the media in the form of a press release.
Conduct direct mail campaigns to apartment complexes* in your area.


*Apartment complexes are a great place to market your seminar for two reasons:


First, you can select apartment complexes by their average monthly rent Nike Air Max 2020 Nederland , meaning you can loosely qualify the recipients based on income.
