wyoming: We're in the top 10 Twice - Forbes Magazine
- 12/24/14 01:03 AM
The beauty of living one with one foot in Idaho and one foot in Wyoming is 2 top ten ski resorts within minutes from home! Grand Targhee in Alta Wyoming, a stones throw from Driggs, Idaho is rated number 8 & is about as low key as it gets. Jackson Hole Mountain Resort is rated number 1 this year and is only a 45 minute drive from my front door. We are all pretty proud of where we live and think it is one of the best places on earth. Glad to hear Forbes agrees with us.

- 03/17/12 12:06 AM
When there are too many branding irons in the fire a calf will inadvertently get branded with the wrong iron! This is true in Business as well.

I am currently too busy to handle the work load, I have just started an assistant and I am considering a virtual assistant as well. The way I figure it - If each … (16 comments)

wyoming: What does a Certification REALLY Mean?
- 08/20/11 08:45 AM
I am a Broker in both Idaho and Wyoming. With Cerifications for Equator, e-PRO, GRI and SFR (Short Sale and Foreclosure) I just asked myself "What does it REALLY Mean"? After considering this for a moment I offer this:

wyoming: Unfair Share?
- 07/23/11 09:54 AM
I read in a marketing book a while back a phrase about getting your "UNFAIR SHARE" of the market. I have used this to explain how I was doing in our down market and had a conversation with an Architect friend, this is something how it went: Q: How is your brokerage doing? A: We are getting our unfair share. I am thankful for opportunities that have come our way. Architect: Unfair share sounds somewhat negative, I see how hard you have been working. That is like saying you are getting your "unfair" share of the sunlight because you crawled out of the cave and stood … (4 comments)
