Recap of WCR Events, Second Quarter 2014

WCR Western Michigan has been busy as usual.  So what have we been up to recently?  Check it out!

APRIL LUNCHEON- "Mini Bootcamp with ZattaChat"
A powerful and productive event designed for those brave entrepreneurs who go out on their own and blaze a trail of independence.  Christi Pentecost of ZattaChat spoke to us about marketing and figuring out who our ideal client is, and how to target that marketing.  To those who want to make a difference for themselves, their families and their community, we say:    Go For it!  Miss the luncheon?  Watch the video summary https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3q5HHYZpbA.

MAY LUNCHEON- "Construction Panel- What You NEED to Know!"
With the inventory of homes for sale at historical lows, knowledge of new construction is more important than ever.   There were two panels, one of builders and one of Realtors, both with extensive insight on the process of new construction.  Our builder panelists for this great event were:  Bob Sorensen with Eastbrook Homes, Joel Peterson with Joel Peterson Homes, Matt McCollum with Forest Hills Homes, Rich Bloem with True North Homes, and John Bitely with Sable Homes.

JUNE LUNCHEON-  "Birgit Klohs with The Right Place"
For the  June Luncheon we returned to Charley's Crab for this special event.  Birgit Klohs from The Right Place spoke about business retention and creation around Grand Rapids and Western Michigan.  We as Realtors and residents of GR, can help do our part by making this a welcoming community.
