Be There or Be Square! Wednesday Night is Pizza Night!

I am instituting a Peer Support Group on Wednesday Night at 5:30 to 7:30 this week. Future dates to be announced.

What is that?

It's a night where agents get together to do whatever they just don't get around to doing.

I have to write personal notes to my past clients.

Jeremy wants to Cold Call.

Kate wants to send out a mailer to townhome owners.

Women have been doing things like this for years. They are called "Stitch and Chats" and women all work on something different and get their own stuff done, but on a regularly scheduled night where they come together and have refreshments and support each other's spending time on getting their own stuff done.

At the Roanoke Bar on Capitol Hill it's called Stitch and Bitch and is on Thursday Nights, last I heard.

We can break down into different groups. Cold callers over there, mailers over here, and join together for Pizza!

Broker supplies the Pizza has always been the way I've seen it done, so Pizza is on ME...or the Company if I can get them to pay for it :)

It is not a Training Class and you need to have something you want to do with little or no direction from me! LOL! I've got my own stuff to do. But you can peek over everyone's shoulder and learn a thing or two from what the others are doing. Listen to their calls, see what they are mailing out and to whom and why.

Lots to share, lots to learn, get a lot done and Pizza too...now isn't that an offer you can't refuse, and from an Italian no less. Be there or BE SQUARE!

I'm with Andrew above.  That's become the story of my life... me & my team get the lion's share of our work done after the typical work day is done.  I'll let my wife know, tho... she's in your neck of the woods for a few days.   **And just a side note, we actually discovered AR thanks to one of your co-horts at BRIO!**

That sounds like fun!  Should get a ton done, too! LOL

We do this in my office on Thursday nights.  It is really fun and its also good for encouragement, support, and accountability.  Its really fun when someone who is making calls gets an appointment.  We all cheer and party as soon as they hang up.

YES! Kimberly!  I remember that part too.  The cheering and fun makes cold calling happen.  Even I did it...once.  But just once.  I liked the cheering part, but that's about it.

I'm definitely not square (I'm ROUND!  LOL! ) so I'll be there!

I like it/ Maube I'll start one here in Nashville. I know a few people who would be interested.
