 The achievements of an organization are the results of the combined effort of each individual.
By Vince Lombardi

2009 is just about to end and most of us should be prepared for the upcoming year.  This year has seen new challenges to say the least.  In order to keep up with the coming times, we better have some type of plan.  My broker, has made it "mandatory" for all of us to turn in a 2010 Business Plan.  We meet twice a month and are to turn in our plan this coming Thursday.  I have spent majority of the time today putting it all down and realize that I need to come up with more than words....I better plan on the action as well.  I have seen or heard about REALTORS that I thought would never go out of business doing just that. Which tells me those remaining in the business need to really stand out!  Or, we will get eaten up ALIVE!

Since I haven't done a tune in awhile, I would like to end this blog with one of my favorites.  It does have me reflect on the year's events, personal and business, sad and good, all in all..a BLESSED year!

I am a licensed REALTOR® from Pike County located about 45 miles south of Atlanta and considered MetroAtlanta.  I assist buyers/sellers and strive to make the transaction as smooth as can be.  I believe that it is a TEAM EFFORT with buyer/seller, lender, attorney and myself.  Communication is the key!

One of a kind Art Creations By Artist/Illustrator Robin Goben-Lawver

I stopped by a shop located on the square in Zebulon the other day and was so glad that I did! I heard it was under new ownership and was completely delighted in all the "goodies" I came across while there! The name of the shop, Robin's Nook, offers creative art and gifts. The owner, Robin, does this out of pure enjoyment and it is clear that she truly LOVES what she does. My "quick stop" turned into about an hour of looking and talking with Robin. I felt like I had found a pearl inside an oyster shell. I hope the gifts I purchased will delight them as much as I enjoyed purchasing them.

I invite everyone to check out ALL the lovely assortment Robin has to offer at her quaint shop or go online to www.robinsnookart.com.

After attending our local boards annual 2009 Realtors Celebration this past Friday evening, seeing the awards earned after the tough market we faced in 2008, was very encouraging.  To all the homes viewed, customers and/or clients served, loans put together, schedules rearranged, marketing ideas, educational/training classes attended and everything else that goes with our profession.....congratulations to all our local board winners!

As promised here is some updated information on this upcoming event! This year's theme will be based on a western theme, "Roundin Up For A Cure". So folks lets saddle up, pull on the reins on committment and lasso up those donations! For donations, becoming a member of our team or just general information on this event go to the following: www.RelayForLife.org/PikeGA

This community event is my favorite one to participate in for a couple reasons. Number #1 is that it benefits such a great cause! Cancer affects all of us in one way or another. It affects us by family, friends, co-worker(s), neighbors, clients.....somehow it touches our lives. Number #2 is our team joins together under one local board, not seperate brokerages, and work toward this one goal.

This year our Relay For Life is set for May 8, 2009. We have not had an "official" meeting but as soon as one is set and as I know further information....I will update this blog. Let me hear from you on any ideas that you may be doing to promote this great cause!
