Long ago. The ROI wasn't there. If I was going to do that today, I would live stream it, or webinar, or video chat.

I did many moons ago, ROI wasn't there, didn't enjoy it so never did it again. I sent letters out to apartment complexes, then postcards to the same people, lender advertised it in the local paper, flyers and we had to bribe them with door prizes.

I have done many of them in my day and we sent flyers out, advertised in the newspaper, contacted our databases, bribed them with door prizes and valuable information and still never had more than a handful of attendees. With so much info available online now, I suspect you'd have fewer today.

Yes, joint promotion, lender promotes & agency promotes. Today, the best response comes from online marketing since the focus is mainly first-time buyers, the millennials.

I have attended them or one I dont recall. However, people like them. How to get them there? Anyway you can...flyers, door-knockers, mailboxes, word of mouth, signage...unleash it all. Offering something free helps quite a bit

Not recently, meaning not in the last five years.
Before that time I did. I found that the secret to success was enduring presence.
The event was hosted by a collaborative partner in a very visible retail location in Dunedin. Signage stayed in the window 24/7. This is important. People like familiar.
When their community received the invite, they already were comfortable with the location and recalled, "That is where we saw the sign." It was over 3 weeks before attendance exceed 15 on these once a month events.
Would I do it again? No.
Why? I do not have a lending partner with appropriate agility to maximize the effort.
What would persuade me to do it again?
Good question. Since this is about FIRST TIME HOME BUYERS, I would have interest if the lender could cite 4 sources of down-payment assistance without saying, "I'll call you back."
And of course they need to grant permission to use the recorded event for online purposes.

I did a few back when the $7000 tax credit was out there and had my CPA attend and present as well as a lender. Haven't done them recently because my preferred niche of lake (second homes) has returned to normal.

Will Hamm I'm actually planning my first one for this February. Lenders will be pre-qualifying on site so they're ready to go when they leave. I have a hnadul of first time buyers in the back of my mind that I will call and personally invite, and tell to bring their friends. I also plan to run targeted FB ads and flyer a few apartments. Happy to talk strategy with you if you're planning to do one in the near future as well.
