A LITTLE ETIQUETTE
PLEASE
Remeber please that good manners cost nothing and despite the number of emails and invitations we get daily, agents and hosted buyers should never be blase and should always remember some key golden rules. Even if your agency has a set policy on fams, use our handy guide as a reminder.
We've all read the stories about buyers attending the opening of an envelope so don't get a reputation for attending everything and booking nothing!

And now some FAQ's....
Why #Famtastic?
Fred looked everywhere and couldn't find a centralised site which listed not only key industry events, but also the oodles of opportunities for educational fams, or invitations available to agents. Wouldn't it be great to have somewhere to look that lists all of the opportunities available so you can make an informed choice?
I Already Get Too Many Invitations!?
Lucky you. But being able to see all of the options allows you to plan ahead and combine any invitations with client visits, new business meetings or other work related activity well in advance. It also avoids that terrible faux par which Fred knows some people make - accepting an invitation and then cancelling when a better one comes along. You know who you are?!
It's Email Overload Already!
Fred understands that we all get far too many emails and even though etiquette dictates that we should all reply even if we can't attend, sometimes invitations simply slip through the net. Once you are on #Famtastics Mailing list, you have a great excuse in that you can make informed choices and only sign up for those events that are relevant for you.
It's All A Bit Last Minute?
If you are a little fed up of only receiving invitations last minute, when clearly suppliers have had a cancellation and are looking to fill any last minute gaps, #Famtastic enables you to see which opportunities are available well in advance.
We Already Have a Protocol at Our Agency?
Even if the invitations which you receive at work go direct to the Management or through a filter process before you ever see them, having them in advance allows you to make an informed and well presented case in order for you to expand your own personal education.
How Do I Know If I've Qualified?
Each supplier who posts an invitation will contact you directly to let you know whether you have been accepted. #Famtastic isn't able to qualify anyone for any events and cannot get directly involved with any issues between agents and suppliers. Fred simply wants to enable the industry to see the opportunities available for all.
I Want To Opt Out
Fred will miss you but it's not a problem, simply unsubscribe when you get your next newsletter or Friday Flash Famtastic. You can always sign up again at a later date if you choose to. We take your data protection very seriously so we will never share your information without your permission. How did we get it in the first place? Ours is a tight knit industry so we have your name, but please let us know if you would like us to delete you from any data storage.
