[Conventioncommittee1] Convention Agenda - ECONOMIST speaker

Tue Jan 9 13:43:09 PST 2024

We don’t normally pay travel and room charges for industry speakers. Most are attendees anyway (example: Paul on cybersecurity, agent and underwriter panel members, etc.). Association members (i.e. agents and underwriters) cover their employee expenses. But he and his wife wouldn’t need to pay for registration, we’d register them for no charge because he’d not normally be attending this event.

But, we can certainly offer to cover travel and room (or maybe just the room?) and that would help Stewart, although add to our costs.

The Convention Committee can decide what to do on that. I’d suggest covering his registration and room, but not travel. Your thoughts?

Thanks George – New Agenda looks good. 

I am happy to reach out to Ted. He is officially retired as of Dec 31 but Stewart is paying for him to do one more year of Land Title Visits. 

If the group agrees – I can reach out to Ted to see if his schedule is open at this time.

At this point, George if we can get Ted for “free.” That would be awesome. I assume “free” still means we absorb travel / lodging?

Subject: [Conventioncommittee1] Convention Agenda - ECONOMIST speaker
Importance: High

All – here is a revised working draft agenda. Let me know what you think.

By the way – we neglected to discuss an economist. There was no consensus in our last email discussion. Ted Jones, who will be retiring, is probably a good choice, albeit very familiar to everyone. But, no fee involved.

This all assumes the one we want is available…

Do we want to contact the 4 names I mention in my last email ((Ted Jones, Skylar Olson – Zillow, Mathew Gardner – Seattle Times & pricy, Brian Kelly – Seattle U)), and do we have a volunteer who can do that? I suspect most involve a fee. Since the economy is on everyone’s mind, I think this topic is important and timely. It might be worth paying for this. I’d say $1,000-$2,000 but we should discuss. (I think Matthew Gardener is more than that by a lot.)

If we agree on Ted, I assume Brian can make that call.

Open for discussion – (1) who, (2) pay a fee? (3) if so, how much?

George
