We Are GaREIA 2 / July 2015 | Page 18

“We Are GaREIA” – The Volunteer Corner GaREIA is unique among most REIAs in that it is a non-profit entity. That means that GaREIA is powered by investors who are truly so dedicated to making real estate investing a part of their lives and helping others do the same that they are willing to donate their time to support and build their REIA. Unlike any other REIA in the area, GaREIA is truly by and for investors in a wholly individual way. You can be certain that every event, every meeting, and every single training is a product of dedication and passion for real estate because those events are managed by GaREIA volunteers. In the monthly “Volunteer Corner” feature, we will spotlight a group within GaREIA that plays a crucial role in the function of the association. This month, we turn our eyes toward the marketing division, headed by Angela Nurse. Angela is an active real estate investor and property consultant at We Do Dwellings. She is also the editor of the monthly GaREIA newsletter, We Are GaREIA, and manages GaREIA’s formal publicity. To get a better idea of how GaREIA’s marketing division functions, we sat down with Angela to ask some basic questions: Q: What does the marketing division of GA REIA do? The GaREIA Marketing committee is responsible for advising on and implementing the internet presence and marketing requirements of the various GaREIA division directors based on their individual plans. We do this by providing web content to our database and other internet users
