RainCamp Los Angeles May 15th ~ We'll See You There!

RainCamp Los Angeles - The Date and Venue Are Set

Many have been asking me when...When... WHEN is RainCamp coming to Southern California?  We just received our confirmation so I'm typing this as fast as I can.  Los Angeles it is - May 15th, 2010.  Mark your calendars and register quickly, we only have about 300 seats open, and only 84 Platinum seats available with tables and power for your laptops. That is about 1/2 the size of an average RainCamp in a much bigger real estate market. The other auditorium seating will only have your laps available and no electrical power. 

Download a Full Color Map.

RainCampLA will be hosted at Loyola Marymount University in the "Hilton 100" Room. - 1 LMU Drive, Los Angeles, CA 90045. (310) 338-2700. Check out the new RainCamp.com, we have our schedule posted there and all the information you'll need for each and every RainCamp event!

We're really very excited to be coming to Los Angeles, we might have to stay a couple extra days just so we can meet up after with so many of our AR friends and family down there.

Events


"I was lucky to attend the first RainCamp in Seattle. The investment of time and money has been well worth every penny and minute! I am a believer! As an attendee of the first RainCamp, I say "Save the date" and make time in your busy schedule!!! You will be astonished..."
Paul Henderson - Lacey, WA

"I have been to a slew of events that over-promised and under-delivered, often nothing more than expensive sales pitches from people who didn't even want to be in the field anymore. What impressed me was that Ben Kinney is simply sharing what he's actively doing. Very useful information all day!"
J Philip Faranda - Westchester County, NY


  

"I have received three phone calls in the last two days as A DIRECT RESULT of what I learned at RainCamp"
John Cannata - Dallas, TX

Feel free to view my posts on my blog about Raincamp here in the Chicago area earlier in the week.  Lots of good info.  My only regret is not bringing my trumpet to play for Brad at the Big Shot piano bar after party...

Bill - not sure if they got rooms yet, someone else takes care of that for us.

Looks like I commented awhile ago. Is it really on a Saturday? Interesting.

Posted by Melissa Zavala Realtor® North San Diego County Homes (Broadpoint Properties) 3 months ago

Hey Brad - Video and audio record the RainCamps.  Burn the sessions on DVD and sell for a reasonable price.  Don't spend a lot of time on production values but just point the camera in the right spot.  I'm sure a lot of us would be happy to buy them if not too expensive since the value of the information will be very good. 

From the land where ActiveRain never visits up north.

GO SIGN UP NOW!!! This is a day of enlightment that you will not want to miss! The only way that you could possibly not learn anything from attending is if you stayed in the parking lot and never left your car. I was at RAINCAMP CHICAGO last week and would recommend it to everyone! My only question is, when is the multi-day RAINEVENT going to happen??? Something like 3 days in Punta Cana or the like?? Let me know I want first dips on a ticket!!!

Hello all:

RainCamp is the single best investment you can make in yourself! If you only budget one conference per year, this is the one!

Are you ever coming to the southeast? Florida does not count. How about Charlotte or Atlanta? Help. NC & Ga. two of the ten largest states in the union with SC in between. 23.7 Mil. people in those three states alone.

Posted by Tom Bailey (At Waves Edge Coastal Real Estate) 3 months ago

I'll chime in for a sec to say, If you can go... do it. You'll be glad you did. Raincamp is one of those events where you actually get to the good stuff right up front and and stay with it through the entire event. You'll come a way with ready to use take a ways that would cost you a ton and take months to acquire. 

Posted by René Fabre (The Talon Group) 3 months ago

Thanks everyone for these great testimonials and comments

I just popped in real quick to read, see who's coming, and say thanks to those of you who attended previous RainCamps.  Each event seems to evolve into something more exciting and better than the last.  Chicago RainCamp was an absolute blast. 

We finally have someone who is dedicated to setting these venues up and making all the arrangements so that we can continue bringing them to your areas.  If we haven't been to your neighborhood just yet, we apologize and ask that you be patient, we'll be coming soon. 

I'm sooooo looking forward to seeing so many of you in Los Angeles next month.  RainCamp LA will awesome!!

Thinking about how many realtors you could pull in from the LA area, I am reminded of the line from Jaws, "we're going to need a bigger boat".

Posted by Joe Pryor.com REALTOR® Oklahoma Investment Properties (Redbud Realty) 3 months ago

I'd love to come but I'd have to close my businesses for a week since you're having it on Saturday. And since you're going to be at LMU, I'd have to also visit:

  1. Pacific Palisades
  2. Santa Monica
  3. Marina del Rey
  4. Dockweiler State Beach
  5. Manhattan Beach
  6. Hermosa Beach
  7. Redondo Beach
  8. Rancho Palos Verdes
  9. the Queen Mary in Long Beach
  10. Aquarium of the Americas in Long Beach
  11. Seal Beach
  12. Huntington Beach
  13. Newport Beach
  14. Laguna Beach
  15. Dana Point
  16. San Onofre State Beach

Heck, I might not get back to San Diego until June 1!
