A testimonial monologue from a speaker praising the Forward Event (Forward Event 2021) as a highly custom, intimate, and actionable mastermind for realtors and loan officers. The speaker emphasizes the event's small size (about 75 attendees), hands-on tactical marketing and branding content (video strategies, social media, hiring, Google-related tactics), extensive note-taking ("60 something pages" of notes), and intent to attend future iterations. The tone is enthusiastic and informal, contrasting this event with large, generic conferences.
For those of you who missed it, you missed a really insane experience. All right, we're out here for the Ford event. Oh, my God. Oh, my God. So crazy. Incredible five, amazing. The most unbelievable, cutting edge marketing and just. I can't even put it in words. Port event was awesome. It's been really awesome. Was so awesome so far. Best event I've been to. Extraordinary, Incredible. Amazing. Amazing. Nothing else like it. Mind blown. Like the mind blown emoji. Like the Pretty much starstruck from the get go. What I aimed to do with this event was custom, not corporate. And what I meant was I wanted to be the exact opposite of all the boring conferences that I've been to. Every little thing that bothered me about an event, we wanted to do the opposite and make it better. It took a lot of fucking work. I mean, I'm gonna check you right now. It's not easy. I just jumped in to the deep end. So from comfortable seating to really innovative content, the best information, actionable information. Not just bullshit, but actionable information. It was all here today. I can't believe how well this went. What I loved about it was the intimacy. 75 people making it super. Just intimacy of this small group really made a big difference for me, actually. I had a guy that was like, oh, Tom Ferry showing up to an event with only 75 people. Yeah, I'm not sure. And he was here. Oh my gosh, he's right there. Where you at, buddy? He had some cheap ass, couldn't get the duckets together. Right. The chance to actually talk to so many people that are various levels of doing the work, the fact that I can connect more personally with the other attendees, not just talking about the work and learning the work, but really doing the work. Go a little more granular, a little more hard hitting to watch their businesses accelerate. So anytime I can be in an environment of doers, I'm in the man fricking did it. It was freaking worth it. Y' all better not miss out. I mean, if you weren't here, you missed out on how we can destroy Google. What you can do to build your brand. Video strategies, tactics, lists, hiring strategies. I mean, it's gone all over the place. The speakers were off the charts. It was super tactical. Been to other events where they're all motivational, super hype. Usually I'm used to going to like 6,000, 7,000, 8,000 people events as nothing but pure raw information, great information. There was so much valuable information about marketing and branding and video and social media. The. The only thing I'M thinking right now is I gotta get back to the office to start brainstorming how I'm gonna start executing on everything I'm learning. I already have meetings set up. I mean, I took notes in taking mad notes. I'm on the sixth page. Like, I think I'm on, like, page 17 or 18 of that book. I have literally 60 something pages of notes. We're halfway there. I've been to a lot of events. I've talked to a lot of events. Love this event. I'm stoked I was able to be a part of the very first event because I know this isn't going to be the last one. And you can guarantee that I'm going to be at the rest of them. I'll definitely come next year. Forward event. You need to be here. There's nothing else like it.
