local charleston news: Who knows a Realtor that needs more referrals?
- 07/29/09 09:32 AM
The reason that I ask the question, "Who knows a Realtor that needs more referrals" is because the Professional Network Connections is holding their inaugural West Ashley Business Partners Networking meeting Thursday July 30th, at 12 Noon at the Sunfire Grill in West Ashley....and we need a Realtor!
This network meets twice a month to provide networking and educational opportunities for business professionals. Educational guest speakers and business roundtable discussions are scheduled monthly and these lunch meetings are open to the business community.

local charleston news: Are You One Of The "Criminals" That Use Bandit Signs?
- 02/23/09 02:30 AM
Do you use signs to market your business or service? You know the kind that I am talking about; the bright yellow signs that are nailed to telephone poles, or trees or are stuck in the ground near high traffic areas.
Investors called them 'Bandit Signs" or "Snipe Signs" Several years ago, when I first began investing in real estate, I had a friend that ordered 500 of these signs every month to "get-the-word-out" as he says, about his business; when I asked him, "Why 500?" he replied, "Because "They" keep taking them down!" He never could explain exactly … (1 comments)

A lot of us that were around back in the 60's, remember Steve McQueen, Yul Brynner. James Coburn, Charles Bronson, Robert Vaughn, Brad Dexter, & Horst Bucholz, teaming up to star, in what many movie fans would argue, is the greatest western of all time: The Magnificent Seven!

The original movie started a decade of great sequels, (The Guns of the Magnificent Seven, Return of the Magnificent Seven, etc) and helped pave the way for the "Spaghetti Westerns" that made Clint Eastwood (The Good, The Bad, … (0 comments)
