Public notification of water emergency. - 08/29/08 12:29 PM
 
This post is for our AR community and the consumers of our services to become aware that procedures are in place to alert the public whenever an emergency occurs with public drinking water. These procedures are available with local municipalities department of water so that by registering in the event of such an emergency (e.g. terrorism, compromised public health) a network of communications can be initiated for safety sake.

EXTEND YOUR WEB PRESENCE IN THE BIG WWW WITH SKYPEFIND - 08/24/08 08:23 PM
 
Being a pilot I use skype often to keep my communication cost down while overseas. SkypeFind is a feature which allows you to list and rate a business in their community of users.
 
SkypeFind will list your business including URL and allow you to use keywords in their search engine which can give your business additional exposure in the big WWW (and today you can’t get enough publicity LOL) with perhaps higher rank in the top of whatever market you are targeting.
 
I suggest giving it a try and feedback is always welcome.

Engage open house guest with visual presentations - 08/23/08 10:30 PM

I display current and relevant topics that capture buyer needs and interest and which leads to opportunities of discovering buyer motives, wants and in general to open a flow of communication.
Below are pictures of my display boards.
I recommend using them and I would like your feedback on using this technique.
KEEP THE BLUE SKY UP!!

I look for better ways to help benefit people that have obstacles. These obstacles can involve foreign language which is a major part of our business. So I decided to be in touch with a part of our culture.

Information is power therefore when you can give clout to someone the only result can … (0 comments)

GET YOUR SELLER'S PRICE BACKED BY A HOME INSPECTION - 08/12/08 08:53 PM
Sellers want max dollars for there homes and for good reason. To support there desire always urge them to get a home inspection.
We have had a sad experience in the past with a listing client whom we recommended a home inspection but did not follow through and as a consequence lost $40,000. Truly a heart breaker but all we can do is give advice and guidance and hope that they follow.
Currently we are working with clients that are following our advice and it is such a joy to see them completing our recommendations in the post house inspection counseling.
