Announcing the Session Line-Up for ENCON2015!

#ENCON2015 is just one month away and in case you haven't heard, we've released the session line-up for this year's event! We take great measures to ensure our content is tailored to the specific needs of our audience. By avoiding the fluff and diving head first into the trenches, we uncover unique tactics and data that will help each member stay ahead of the curve and thrive in a competitive market.

As always, the booj team will take the stage to discuss how to use the tools on our platform more effectively. We will also be showcasing new technologies released on our platform this year, and will be unveiling our future development plans for 2016 and beyond.

Because the theme this year is "A Network of Relationships" we've expanded our session line-up to include more panel discussions than ever before. This year, you will hear firsthand how other members are implementing effective online marketing strategies, leveraging the tools on our platform to maintain a competitive edge, establishing successful training programs at their brokerages - and most importantly, sharing valuable insight so you can, too.

Without further adieu, below are the topics discussed at ENCON2015. For a full schedule line-up, please visit our event page.
