My love for coffee is no secret so it’s exciting to have a snapshot of mine included with others on the new Starbucks VIA Ready Brew website. During the first weeks of its launch you can check out contests and prizes on StarbucksVia.com with categories including Home, Work and First Taste….
“Outside the Box” VIA comes packaged in single serving sized tubes with a taste compared to regular brew. This could be handy for your Real Estate Agent toolbox.
A thermos or pot of hot water, “VIA Ready Brew” and a little imagination could create a welcoming coffee counter at your next Open House with little effort or waste –
a dozen fit nicely in each espresso cup used for the examples below which are also handy "at home" btw:
Please tell ten friends to tell ten today! The Breast Cancer site is having trouble getting enough people to click on their site daily to meet their quota of donating at least onefree mammogram a day to an underprivileged woman. It takes less than a minute to go to their site and click on 'donating a mammogram' for free (pink window in the middle).
This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate mammogram in exchange for advertising.

When the phone rings and someone says….I found you on the internet – as a Real Estate Agent: the first thing that comes to my mind is someone's considering buying or selling a home. Other calls come from people and companies selling their services or wares but Monday I had a precious first –
The phone rang – I answered and a voice on the other end said, “Hi this is Jose. You’re on the Internet?” he asked. “Yes Jose”….I said (as a background conversation sparked up in Spanish between Jose and a woman on his end of the line. Then Jose returned to the phone conversation and said….“I’ll call you back.”
A few minutes later the phone rang (same caller id #). I answered and heard, “Hi this is Jose again”….I greeted him and asked what area they live and if they were looking for a home. Jose said they weren’t looking for a home adding in a sincerely matter-of-fact tone….”I want you to make me famous” (pause) - that was me as he explained that he sings and someone told him the day before he should find an “Agent” Well There You Go!
After a brief conversation about Talent Agents, I wished Jose my best without even asking for a few bars, dang! Oh but I do have his #
So if someone you know is in the market for a singer….or casting for singers in the Seattle/Tacoma area in the near future….I’d be happy to relay the info to Jose – Love Life! J
