Why The Smiles?

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker 475.140531

There are so many reasons. I feel grateful to be in a line of work that is so enjoyable. There is nothing more important than going to work and feeling enthusiasm. I have once been in a work situation where I grew burned out and did not feel excited to wake up and hit the pavement on a Monday. Not anymore. It is really fun to be a true Professional Realtor at Coldwell Banker in Evanston IL and provide great customer service and hear people tell you so.

I really enjoy my work and my environment that supports that. Today after turning in some paperwork and a check for a new deal a few people in the office starting talking and asking some technical questions. A group got together and we had an impromptu session on how to use technology to promote your listing. Everyone was in a good mood and helped each other. I was among comrades. I really enjoyed that.

Then I went into our administration office and turned in my work and answered a few questions to update the people who do the behind the scenes part of our transactions. I am really happy because everyone is really productive right now and many people are having exceptional years including me. These great people tease me that they have their hands full to keep up with our deals. You have to love that.

If you ever wanted to be in a great office I would point anyone to Coldwell Banker Evanston 1710 Central in Evanston IL, if you are buying or selling Real Estate or are a Realtor, the door is open. At that moment today I felt so good and my managing Broker Chris Stephens walked in. We are both so full of positive energy it just had to be captured. Check out the smiles.

I am so proud of what we do and how we do it. Peace, Love and much success to everyone.

Looking For Homes With A Smile

Noah, I'm smiling.  I love the old song, "Give the world a Smile each day, helping someone on life's way..."

When I see a co-worker, a friend or a family member looking tired, discouraged, occupied, sad or lost, I find it so rewarding to say, with a smile, "Hey, you have that smile on upside down.". They say thanks and walk away with a smile.

 

I had a loan processor, whom I affectionately call "Sunshine" because she truly makes those around her feel better about themselves.  Like everyone else, she has excuses available to make others miserable, but I cannot recall her ever doing so.  God noticed, and rewarded her with grandchildren she once had reason to think she may never have.  One of my favorite things to do on Facebook is to stop by her's and other grandparents' posts to see the little one giving away free joy.  That is one reason why I am smiling...

What a beautiful smile you have. Nice work on staying busy and closing deals. But what impresses me more is your love of what you do. It shows in the picture you posted and in your writing. Keep your passion strong, Noah.
