The first International RESA Conference is almost here.... and it is SOLD OUT!!!  With 200 people who have signed up, that is amazing. REALLY, for the first conference, simply amazing. It will be such fun talking with like minded people, people who truly care about your success, people who want YOU to be the best that you can be, people who share your hopes and dreams. Staging secrets, success, and tips of the trade... talk about a burst of staging energy. Can you handle it!!!   If you didn't sign up... we will miss you!  Really, we will. There will always be next year though.

But if you are having second thoughts... there is a waiting list.  This conference is open to everyone who wants to embrace professional staging and who wants to create a business for themselves. Put all the different training aside and let's get down to business!

We can't wait to meet you!______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

I have been socializing up a storm lately... blogging here, tweeting there, facing here, linking there. It can be never ending and so addicting. It has been easy to sit in front of the computer and socialize away. I tend to eat and drink more too. Humm, this is not good, not good at all.

Since I have had more time at home recently, I have had to restrict myself from my social internet party. No more eating, drinking and relying on Internet socializing for my marketing. Oh now don't get me wrong... AR will always be my addiction, but I will be toning it down with all my other vices. I will not be the Biggest Loser in Real Estate!

So in order to loose 10 pounds;

I am going back to pounding the pavement.

I am going back to visiting Open Houses,

I am going back to passing out 10 cards a day,

I am going to "limit" my social/marketing network intake,

I will smile, chat, and enquire.... like I did when I first started and Active Rain was just a small community of 11,000 and "everybody knew your name".  

Yup, I am starting over.

Whew, glad that I got that out, I feel so much better, part of some kind of real estate therapy I guess. ;) 

My inspiration for this Blog has come from 2 Active Rain sources or should I say "Trainer Sources:

A blog by Joe Manausa   ACTIVE RAIN MEMBERS EPITIMIZE SUCCESS

and another by Lenn Harley  "DON'T REST ON YOUR LAURELS". Or, past success doesn't guarantee future success.

Both of these Blogs really got me thinking...two different view points but powerful information that we can all learn from.  We can be thankful for all that the Internet has allowed us to do, but we can't forget our bottom line to get out, meet people and promote our services.

So folks, I am starting this "diet" tomorrow, because I have something to say tonight on the net, and also have a small glass of wine to inspire my writing.

But you may want to ponder this thought: If Internet socializing were to suddenly go away... would you survive?

The first annual 5K Fun Run Doggie Walk was held today starting at Baker's Nursery on Taylor Road. This run will benefit a local animal sanctuary "A Chance For Bliss" who's owners are desperately trying to save their animal ranch. This wonderful sanctuary is in foreclosure and many area supporters have tooted their horn to promote funding for this exceptional animal ranch that gives these creatures a forever home to live out their life. Local Veterinarians, volunteers, and area businesses have donated their services to this very unique ranch that offers dignity, and love in the final years of life.

A great turnout, a great effort, and a great cause. We all felt blessed to be a part of it.

A Chance for Bliss still needs donations to make their goal to save the ranch. They are almost there, can you help?

It can happen and it did in this market! We staged a beautiful Granite Bay home last month that went pending within days of the staging. We were pleased to hear that it received multiple offers and when it came down to the final price... it went for $80,000 over the listing price. WOW! How cool is that? Here is the RES for this beautiful home! __________________________________________________________________________________________________ Lori Kim Polk is the Founder and Lead Designer of Artful Journey Designs and Staging, a full service Home Staging and Design Corporation and a nationally recognized leader within the home staging industry combined with Ryan Dressel from Stage Right Design located in Roseville, California.
