NEW Location!
430 N. Michigan Ave. 2nd Floor
Chicago IL 60611

In addition to adding 75 more seats, we’ll also have a great WiFi connection and a huge pipe through which Dakno can stream live video.

Plus, you can check out The House of “R“!

So, does this mean it’s going to be “NARCamp”? Heck no. It’s the same cool, user-driven unconference it’s always been, just in a very cool real estate venue.

Please pass it on — REBC Chicago has moved to NAR HQ.

We will meet in one large room, sectioned off into several semi-distinct areas. Each areas will be home to discussions to be decided and determined by the group. For example, folks interested in discussing video will be off in one area, people interested in lead conversion for Social Marketing will be in another area, and so forth.

The Law of Two Feet applies. If you don’t the discussion in your area, move on to another one.

Or start your own.

For now, recommend that don’t book a hotel. We’re working on a sponsorship to get rooms for cheap. And failing that, we’ll direct you to a national discount reseller of rooms.

As an example, I booked a 4.5-star hotel in Chicago’s downtown area for $80 a night. You’ll get something similar. And because you won’t need a car, you’ll save another $50 for valet parking. Fly into ORD or
MDW, hop on the El, and make your way downtown. Everything you’ll need is within walking or $7-cab distance.

I hope to have the sponsorships put together within 2 weeks. Grab the feed to stay updated, or watch for updates on Twitter.
