Hot time......Summer in the city

WOW!.......mid July and the "Dog days of summer" are upon us. Time seems to be racing by and the world continues to be upside down economically.

Our new Halifax Plantation Branch office is open. My son TJ, Melody Travers, Eileen Williams and Mel Thibault share their time staffing the facility while Susan, Linda Tedesco and Joe Bilak are at the Roscommon office. Anyone who is in the area, feel free to stop in and meet everyone. Also, if you are on Facebook, do become a fan of Plantation Realty Services where all of our listings, associates and news is published daily. Over the next week or so, I will bring this page up to snuff and look forward to sharing our progress.

This concept of social networking is quite the rage. I for one find it interesting..... Although originally I was quick to declare that people should get a life….anyone that spent that much time on the various networks obviously had nothing better to do. In fact, it does give you the opportunity to market, share and develop your business while learning about your friends and associates' business as well. My good friend Dale Roberts conned me into giving a presentation with him on Social Networking….in our “good guy, bad guy” approach it was easy for me make fun of it and challenge the concept….unfortunately the joke was on me and it didn’t take long to understand the power of these networks. For those of you who share your work with me through Facebook and blogs....thanks….and for those of you who have already referred business and helped us through the transition, thanks.

I recently read a quote that put our current situation in perspective...." In the middle of every challenge lies an opportunity"...so simple but so true.....Don't continue to get beat up by the talking heads who only broadcast the depressing news...instead....continue to post and read the social and business networks where the "real world" is now spreading their experience and happiness.


Good Luck and Good Selling (because we are all selling in one sense or another)
