We are excited to host this event and stand in awe of the transformation that has occurred over the years of bringing you all together.

The magic that has occurred is the networking that has taken on a life of its own. By including two interactive networking events, we have fostered an environment of idea sharing, support, and networking that is truly special and unique. We hope that you will join us so that you too, can experience all that we have to offer this year!
Each year we embrace the theme of Learn, Share, Connect and that is exactly what we have in store for you again this year!
Attendees can earn air travel and hotel accommodations with production, or pay their own travel and lodging, and we will take care of the rest. It is just one way for us to say thank you for all you do.

Get to the YES! Quicker: How to Sell Without Sounding Salesy
If you don’t like to “sell,” you’re not alone. For many agents and advisors, selling can feel forced, unnatural, and far from the reason you got into this business. But what if you could close more business just by sharing a story? In this powerful, interactive session, keynote speaker Deirdre Van Nest will teach you how to identify, craft, and use the Desire Story™—a client-centered story that highlights your impact, sparks desire, and inspires action without ever feeling salesy.
You’ll learn how to:
● Tap into a prospect’s unspoken desires and motivations
● Overcome skepticism and resistance using empathy, not pressure
● Guide conversations that convert—without pitching or pushing
● Avoid the #1 sales-killing mistake most agents and advisors make
● Say exactly what’s needed to get to the “YES!” quicker
During the session, you’ll begin to identify and draft your own Desire Story™. You’ll
also receive a proven template to help you complete it and create additional stories
that connect and convert long after the session ends.

You’ll learn the exact techniques top presenters use to engage, influence, and inspire, plus a powerful framework to deliver your message with clarity and impact.
