RISMEDIA, April 27, 2010—The highly anticipated results and findings of the 2010 Dalton/Hundley Real Estate Social Media Census will be discussed in depth at RISMedia’s Leadership Conference, taking place this June 9 and 10 at the Rye Town Hilton, Rye, N.Y.
Dubbed “The Real Estate Social Media Summit,” this year’s Conference will feature a host of expert speakers and sessions discussing the industry’s number-one business building trend: social media.
In a commitment to reveal the best practices, systems and solutions for maximizing the opportunities presented by social media and social networking, RISMedia and 1parkplace launched the 2010 Dalton/Hundley Real Estate Social Media Census(sm) this past March. Upwards of 10,000 real estate professionals participated in the survey, the results of which will be unveiled at the RISMedia Summit.
“The 2010 Dalton/Hundley Real Estate Social Media Census(sm) is part of our larger commitment to serve the industry,” says John Featherston, Chairman of RISMedia. This year, RISMedia’s Annual Leadership Conference – “The Real Estate Social Media Summit” – will feature more than 80 leading practitioners and expert speakers on the subject of social media and emerging technologies with a special emphasis on blogging and mobile technology.”
According to Allan Dalton, Co-Founder and President of RISMedia’s Top 5 in Real Estate Network® and author of the upcoming book, Leveraging Your Social Media Links Converting Friends, Fans, Followers and Users into Buyers and Sellers, social networking/media offers real estate companies and professionals an unmatched opportunity to become relevant with today’s savvy, technology-oriented real estate consumers.
“The social media phenomenon will only continue to grow, both in terms of usage and in the manner in which individual businesses will strategically refine social media potential for their own purpose,” explains Dalton. “The question is, how can real estate professionals best utilize social media and social networking to become and remain relevant, and thereby, increase revenue? The goal of the 2010 Dalton/Hundley Real Estate Social Media Census(sm) was to analyze how real estate companies, agents, teams, and IT and marketing divisions are effectively leveraging social media in order to build profitable relationships with new and past clients and better serve the informational needs of niche markets and newly formed online communities.
Joining Dalton in the creation of the 2010 Real Estate Social Media Census was Steve Hundley, CEO of 1parkplace, creator of technology and social media solutions for the real estate industry.
“Allan and I are on a crusade,” says Hundley. “We and our respective organizations are committed to uncovering the best solutions and systems for leveraging social media and social networking by launching this very first-of-its-kind census.”
This year, the Leadership Conference will be held June 9-10, 2010, right outside of New York City at the beautiful and conveniently located Hilton Rye Town in Westchester County, New York.
