Dean Graziosi Live and In Person?

im with that but im sure that it would be hard for dean to find the right place find the right time and all that

I know Dean in the past has mentioned it would be cool if everyone got together in person to have a summit of sorts.

What do you all think is a good idea to approach this? For instance, a conference, or something more social or "working vacation" oriented? I bet if enough people are interested Dean will put something very worthwhile and memorable together. When it comes to putting on a event he never disappoints!

Post some feedback and I start pushing on this and see what we can come up with!

I would be interested in a weekend conference (two or three days). Have some wookshops, and of course, a couple presentations from Dean. This would be a wonderful oportunity for investors, old and new, to exchange ideas and establish working relationships, AND get a chance to meet and talk to Dean in person. This is a great idea CBR, lets make something happen.

I'm with you on this one cbrpower. Let's do it, make some noise folks.

Teamwork makes the dream work.

wow - what an amazing idea!
if dean could ever manage it - we could have right where he is.....and combine a workshop with dean (or two haha) and then networking among ourselves, and vacation fun times too! To be able to meet my DG family in person is a dream of mine - and hey - we can all use the business expense, right!
To all of you I wish success, health, much love, friendship and laughter in 2009!

We are in Phoenix, so it's a great time of year to come, particularly if you want to get away from snow!

You don't have to worry about if Dean has the time... he will make the time to put on something really neat.

Also, as many of you know, the Phoenix metro (which includes Scottsdale, Peoria, Mesa, Chandler, Gilbert, Glendale, Surprise, Avondale, Laveen, etc, etc) has some of the largest foreclosure rates in the nation, which means LOTS of inventory and DEALS.

It could be a good opportunity for people who are looking to make deals outside there primary area to see what is going on out here and throw in a bunch ridiculous lowball offers using the numbers game strategy and see what you can do, be it assignment or whatever.

We could probably setup some type of real world scenarios, maybe even having a deal done in real time... lots of things to do.

I will talk with the team and maybe we will setup a "I'm interested" form/survey so we can see how many people are interested and what it is people are most interested in doing and learning.

Keep the feedback coming!

Thanks,
Jason

Count me in Jason,

I would love to have a chance to Meet with Dean, and the whole DG Family.
And what a great excuse to be in Phoenix.

I wish i could but i'm overseas right now working.

Can I still do this even if i'm overseas?

I would love to attend something in the Phoenix area, and learn all I can from Dean and everyone else. I just hope if it comes true I can have at least 1 deal done by then. I want to be able to bring something to the table too.

Just thought I'd throw this in. Elena, Anita, and I are going to be in Phoenix together in April. Would that be too far off to plan something into Dean's schedule? Maybe we could help, too.
Of course, whenever is best for Dean, I'm sure we will all try to make it! (And I AM sick of 20-below up here! lol) To learn from Dean, the #1 REI guru, would be the ultimate workshop/boot camp.
Like Laura said, this is also a dream (goal) of mine.

Looking forward to it!!!!!!!!!

Rina

I don't know if it's possible, but it would be cool to line up a property "field trip" to actually check out a few props and practice everything from "inspecting" to "making an offer" hands-on. Just a thought.

Give it up for the DG Family Gathering
"Ordinary people with an Extraordinary plan"

I think it is a great idea and I like Rina's idea for a property 'field trip'.
But anything Dean wants to do is OK with me.

It is a go for me. How about combining it with a huge live tele-conference for people that can't make it. Just a thought...Jan

I've been wanting Dean to do a 'live' conference/teleconference for months! Since I am a resident here in Phoenix any weekend would be great for me and I can also house a few of my DG family members who want to attend. Let's make it happen folks! Because ONLY we can make 2009 the BEST year yet!

Especially me in espcially since Rina, Elena and I will already be in Phoenix April 23-28th.......HINT HINT HINT!

Oh God yeah I would be there, I'd be anywhere to see the DG Family!!!!!!

I have been to many "conference/rally's/conventions" in a direct service business and have found them to be very beneficial. If it materializes, I would support it and be willing to help if need be.

Happy New Year!

OMG this would be the best thing every to really get me focused and off to the best start ever. I am tired of reading and posting, I am ready to start doing.

I think with all the amazing successful people - CBR, Rina, Anita, Elena, etc etc we could make a killer weekend of workshops, round tables, field trips, etc. with Dean being the icing on the cake! Now all we need is someone with experience in organizing and setting things up! Heck- I'm already marking April off on my calendar haha!
PS - fingers crossed I'll close on my second deal Monday!

I think these are great ideas! A live teleconference (thanks Lena!) would be nice for those that don't have the means to travel to AZ. or the time off
My husband & I would LOVE to meet Dean live and in person (and all my DG family members) this would be the opportunity of a lifetime! Though we probably wouldn't make it this April (unless I get that first deal or 2!) maybe this could become an annual thing we can plan ahead for. What do you guys think?

Dawn

I mentioned this a while back for the contest finalists and for the IC group. (Meet and Greet with Dean and do some real world scenarios, and do a deal in real time) It's a great idea...

I believe this is a great idea, and a trip I will gladly look forward too. However, I will like to be able to add my 2 cents as one of my other family members mentioned. I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed that I make my first deal before this great trip is finalized. Since I seldom travel, this is an opportunity of a lifetime.

Sandra

Elena, I'll take you up on your housing offer.

Dean...I want to come to Arizona to meet you! Lets do some deals while we are all there!

This is an awesome idea, I can surely help with set up, followup reservations etc. I know there are motels that are big enough to hold all of us and we could negotiate price to block out so many rooms, buffet set up etc. Please let me know a date we have to turn in our vacation schedule by March 1 and also let me know if there is anything I can do to get things going. 2009 is going to be the best year ever and everyone working together to help one another with Deans expert advice, sweeeeeet. Just promise you won't set this up during the 100 billion degree summer in AZ. (I am a chubby farm girl)Tee Hee

Hello everyone! For those of you who don't know me, my name is Megan- Dean's personal assistant Anyway, Dean was reading through all of your posts and after seeing how many people would love to participate in a live event, he has decided that this is something that WILL happen some time in April this year! We will take care of ALL the planning that goes into it... hotel, food, where the conference will be held... etc. Please keep showing us your interest and we will make it happen. This will be a lot of fun for everyone and Dean can't wait to meet all of you. I will keep you posted on the details.

Look what happens when a bunch of enthusiastic people get behind a GREAT idea.
I also look forward to meeting those who can make it.

Al

Thanks for the GREAT NEWS!!
Oh, man!! With Dean saying it's a go-ahead and Megan taking on the details, this will be an event we'll never forget!! I hope everyone in the DG family is getting ready for the trip of a lifetime! It will be great to see EVERYONE and thank, in person, a remarkable man who's changed MANY lives, mine included. We're looking forward to it, Dean!

Thank you,
Rina
