Bill Kidwell is all for keeping this season from becoming the mortgage industry’s Summer of Rage. We’ve got no business putting our heads in the sand, so carve out a little time to get acquainted with the political backdrop. Who knows – you could be the next great industry advocate:
The Bureau of Consumer Financial Protection has plans for your summer. On May 9th they shared their Outline of Proposals Under Consideration. On May 25th the met in Washington, D.C. with the Office of Management and Budget and the Office of SBA Advocacy and a select group of Small Entity Representatives. All of this is to prepare for what they have to do to implement the Dodd Frank Act. The purpose of this session is to make sure you know what they are planning so you are prepared to comment on their proposed rule making. If you don’t know about this and don’t make your opinion known, a lot of the other things you learn at this informative conference may be wasted.
You probably don’t know you’re doing it wrong until somebody shows you how to do it right (I’ll be eager to attend). Kelley Koehler takes a deep dive on website traffic data through the eyes of Google Analytics:
Ever get lost in your site analytics, under a mountain of data you have no idea what to do with? Do you faithfully monitor page views and bounce rates without ever really understanding how people use your site or how you can improve it? Kelley discusses how to get the most out of your analytics using the standard metrics and features of Google Analytics. Figure out what matters, what doesn’t, and how to get at the real actionable data so that you can improve your site’s performance.
Dean Ouellette has made Evernote an integral part of his real estate practice, and will lend his experience to the room at MTS:
Everybody is looking for ways to create more time and/or money by improving their productivity. With the power of Evernote, you can. Most people think of Evernote as a place to take and store notes, but calling it a “note-taking” application is like referring to Peyton Manning as simply “a quarterback”. The description does not do it justice.
Dean will take a deep look into the features and functionality of this free web/mobile/desktop app dynamo, showing you the best hacks, shortcuts and power moves to help make Evernote your go-to app for just about everything.
In these tough economic times, MTS is busting the notion that a mortgage mastermind event should be expensive.
