Caring for those around us.... 

 

Caring for those around us has always been a huge part of my life. Taking a few extra moments to say hello and smile as one moves around the community we call Texoma. 

 

We moved to Texoma when I was 12 years old.... in the heat of a Texas Summer. 

My grandmother always said bloom where you are planted at Laura. She was right on target with this statement. Bloom and make a difference is the place God Plants you even if you are unsure of the great big WHY ... of it all.

 

As I grew up and learned this statement in real life.. Graduated high school with my Cosmetology license and headed into working in a Hair Salon right away. 

Service with a smile really does make a difference as well as learning to listen. 

Back in the day when Rollers and hair dryers were in style...... and you had regular clients come in every week at the same day and time.... Loved it really did made so many friends.... 

Spent several years in the Hair Salon business from 1982 to 2001 .... Then life took a new turn and Real Estate became the next adventure of life..... 

 

In 2001 took a few classes and then guess what passed the Real Estate Exam with flying colors..... Yahoo right oh ya it was interesting to say the least. 

Back in the day you had to find a Broker to sponsor you before you could take the Real Estate exam... Dan Robertson was my first Broker we are still friends and he gives me encouragement all the time. 

In 2003 received my Brokers license and opened my own office in 2008... Have not looked back since. 

Thankful for the support of my family and friends as the adventures of life keep moving us forward. 

Real Estate is alot like the Hair Salon .... Listen to what your client is saying to you... Really care about them... Make friends for a lifetime.. 

Bloom where you are planted smile and say hello it really is worth it. 

 

Bloom where you are planted

Thank you for being part of our lives... We appreciate all you have done for us . 

Have a blessed day. 

Your friends in the Real Estate business... 

Laura Filip and Andrea Foss

I think listening is the key to being successful in life and I can tell that you have learned to do this well over the years!  What is the craziest story that someone told you while they were in your salon chair?

Good evening I think the craziest story was when someone forgot that they were using a pressure cooker and allowed it to run dry and when this happened the spaghetti sauce when all over the ceiling. It was funny but yet there was a lot of cleanup. No one got hurt thank goodness as a lot of hot spaghetti sauce went flying to the ceiling.

Laura Filip do you still have your cosmetology license and do you ever do friends/family/clients hair on the side now? -kasey

Evening, thanks for your question. The answer is no I do not do hair any longer. I no longer have my cosmetology license at all. Dropped that section of my life a long time ago. Good memories but no more time to do anything like that.

Hi Laura- what an interesting background. I agree...doing hair is very much like what you do now. You have to listen to what your clients want.

What can we do for you today?

Kathy Streib being a Cosmetology instructor was a job that required listening a fair amount. What was the student missing what did they not catch when you showed them how to achieve a specific style and or way to do something.

Standing behind a hair stylist chair can be a challenge as well listening to how someone wants a hair cut but not using the terms you learned in school. 

Alot like in the Real Estate world, the terms a client may use is not exactly the terms you may use to describe the item in need and or desired. 

Listen ask questions and it can be achieved.

Listening and then delivering on what they want.  I bet you could find a few clients from those days who want to buy or sell a home.
