Sept. 26, 2011 - PRLog -- The Westchester Putnam Association of REALTORS® (WPAR) will converge at the DoubleTree Hotel in Tarrytown for its annual Member Appreciation Day on Monday, October 24, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.  Last year’s event, also held at the DoubleTree, brought out almost 700 Realtors® from Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess counties, as well as the Bronx.

This year’s keynote speaker, Jerry Rossi, is internationally known as a motivator, coach, author, columnist, humorist, educator and entertainer.  He has delivered more than 3,000 presentations over the last 30 years. His topic at the event will be “How to Get Up in the Down Market.”

In addition to the morning’s keynote speech, the event will feature WPAR’s Annual Meeting, an Ethics Class, eight additional breakout sessions, and a trade show with 50 vendors.  

“Last year’s event was one of our most successful, and we’re looking forward to another great turnout this year,” said P. Gilbert Mercurio, WPAR CEO.  “Jerry Rossi is energetic and motivational, and we have an exciting lineup of workshops throughout the day that we believe will be a real benefit for our real estate professionals.”

Some of the featured sessions include: “The Psychology of Short Sales,” that will discuss the emotional aspects of short sales for both sellers and buyers; “Business Structure and Taxes for Agents and Associate Brokers,” explaining the various ways of structuring a personal real estate business; and “Social Media and Risk Management for Owners and Managers,” dealing with managing sales agents’ actions.

Members Day will also feature media panels, moderated by Stacey Cohen of Co-Communications.   Groups of local and regional journalists will reveal the inside scoop on what makes news, as well as field questions from participants.

Judith Ré, author, etiquette expert and founder of the Judith Ré Academie in Fairfield County, will present “First Impressions,” covering  personal branding, setting standards, handling difficult clients, and turning introductions into instant relationships.   Ms. Ré is also a Realtor in Fairfield County, CT.
