🎉 YPN — WE NEED YOUR HELP! 🎉

We’re getting ready for the JAAR Expo on October 8th at Forty Nine South, and we’d love to have some of our awesome YPN members help us spread the word!

Right now, we have 12 Expo booths booked, and we’d really like to fill the room with a great variety of businesses.

💡 Think about the businesses YOU use or recommend!

Not just the traditional real estate vendors — think about businesses REALTORS® might use for closing gifts and client gifts, too:

🕯️ Candles
🍫 Chocolates & specialty foods
💐 Florists
🎁 Gift baskets & personalized gifts
🏠 Home décor
📸 Photographers
💻 Technology
🔨 Home services
…and so much more!

If you know a business that would be a great fit, please tag them, share our vendor post, or reach out to them personally!

And YPN Leadership — we'd especially love your help getting the word out to your networks! ❤️

If someone is interested, have them contact me at [email protected] or 517-787-6175 ext. 1, and I’ll take care of the rest!

Let’s see if we can turn 12 booths into a full house! 🙌🎉
