Apple Inc. Elk Grove Lays Off Workers

Sat, 03 May 2008 23:40:30 -0500

Apple Inc. Elk Grove Lays off Workers

Apple Computers of Elk Grove decided to lay off 174 workers in the sales and support division. Apple has decided to move its sales and call center operations division to Austin Texas. Apple employees were called in on Thursday and told that sales were good but they were being laid off because they wanted their sales and support division under one roof. The Elk Grove Apple location will primarily focus on technical support.

Former employee Anthony Sims from Elk Grove was laid off; he had worked for Apple Computers since June 2007 as a blended agent in sales and service. Anthony is also a promising local baseball player who trains at Champion Sports Inc. in Elk Grove and is a father of two young daughters ages 2 and 4 years old.

Anthony and other employees began to get suspicious about one week ago when managers were leaving to take jobs in Austin Texas and their jobs were not being filled. Anthony and others were surprised by the layoffs and saddened because some co-workers had just bought new homes and had new babies. Some employees felt that the layoffs were done so that Apple could reduce their cost especially in employee compensation. In Austin the employee's salaries are far less and because of a new pay structure no commissions will be paid and employees will receive a base salary with a bonus.

What is Home Staging and Why is it Important

Thu, 01 May 2008 11:27:27 -0500

What is Home Staging and Why is it Important?

Home staging is the process of decorating, organizing, redesigning or reorganizing a home so that it shows and flows well while on the real estate market. You want your home to make its first appearance a grand appearance! Consumers and real estate professionals who bring clients to view homes are more apt to show a home that has been staged over a vacant home or one that has strong odors, looks worn or cluttered. Staging will also make photos taken of your home that will be viewed on the internet and used in marketing pieces look much better. The more photos your Realtor can get the better! Home staging will make all the difference against the neighborhood competition and will determine how quickly your home sells and at what price. If your home is priced fairly close to the competition and one home is staged and the other is not, which home do you think will get more attention and offers? The staged home, Right!

Staging is important and effective when done right. It's best to consult with a professional home stager to find out what should be done before placing your home on the market. A professional stager will conduct a consultation after viewing your home and may offer their services to stage your home for you or they may give you a comprehensive plan of action, explaining what needs to be done before placing your home on the market. Your Realtor will be glad that you have taken steps to make your home stand out from the competition and you will be glad that you took those steps when the offers start rolling in.
