New Keller Williams Team Leader Group on LinkedIn!

Today was my last day as Sales Executive with Lawyers Title. I am sad...and it is bittersweet...but am SO EXCITED for my new path as TEAM LEADER at Keller Williams Arizona Living here in Flagstaff, Arizona! I have enjoyed my 20 years as a Sales Representative for Title and Escrow!

Moving forward...I would LOVE to connect with other TEAM LEADERS for Keller Williams! So I have created a LinkedIn Group for Team Leaders! If you are KW TEAM LEADER....please join me!

http://www.linkedin.com/groups?gid=1956847&trk=hb_side_g

I would love to share thoughts and ideas. I already know that I am in MARKETING HEAVEN with KW!

So....let the journey begin!

Let's Network!

The Price of Stamps is Going Up Tomorrow....Marketing Idea For You!

It seems like everytime we turn around the price of stamps is going up. I bought my $10.00 worth of "Forever Stamps" yesterday. If you are sending out your hand-written notes to your clients and prospects (like you should be...never lose that "personal touch").....you will need stamps. Here is how you can make this work for you:

Buy a sheet TODAY of Forever Stamps. (You can usually get them through the ATM) Send to your clients with a note indicating the price change and that you hope to be their "Forever REALTOR".

-Or- Go buy some .02 cent stamps and send them out with a note about helping them use up their .42 cent stamps. And here is your ".02 cents" about the change in the marketplace, etc.

Maybe even stick a pack of "Forget-Me-Not" seeds....

Forget-Me-Not, Sylva Mix



OH....and don't forget to include TWO business cards......and ask them to keep one....and give one to a friend.

Don't Forget...This Week is Administrative Professionals Week! Appreciate Your Staff!

ADMINISTRATIVE PROFESSIONALS WEEK

Goldilocks Answers Phone Business lady briefcase


Since 1952, the International Association of Administrative Professionals has honored office workers by sponsoring Administrative Professionals Week. Today, it is one of the largest workplace observances outside of employee birthdays and major holidays.

In the year 2000, IAAP announced a name change for Professional Secretaries Week and Professional Secretaries Day. The names were changed to Administrative Professionals Week and Administrative Professionals Day to keep pace with changing job titles and expanding responsibilities of today's administrative workforce.

Over the years, Administrative Professionals Week has become one of the largest workplace observances. The event is celebrated worldwide, bringing together millions of people for community events, educational seminars and individual corporate activities recognizing support staff.

Today, there are more than 4.1 million secretaries and administrative assistants working in the United States, according to U.S. Department of Labor statistics, and 8.9 million people working in various administrative support roles. More than 475,000 administrative professionals are employed in Canada. Millions more administrative professionals work in offices all over the world.

Teen Leadership....maybe you can incorporate this in to your Leadership Group!

I came accross this site from a contact in one of my networking groups. I really liked it because my daughter is entering her teen years, and she is success-driven already. http://www.successfoundation.org/about.html

I noticed yesterday that the Chamber of Commerce (or maybe Community College) is holding a Teen Job Fair on April 29th. She is one year away from being able to attend.

The SUCCESS FOUNDATION is giving away 10 million books called, "Success For Teens" to churches, schools and non-profits.

If you read the link, this is the first paragraph:

GIVING TOMORROW'S LEADERS THE TOOLS TO SUCCEED TODAY

Today's teens face innumerable challenges. The SUCCESS FoundationTM believes our youth can better meet those challenges by using the principles of personal development-enhancing skills like goal-setting, dream-building, self-motivation, time management, and creating high self-esteem and a sense of purpose. The SUCCESS Foundation's mission is to help teens develop these skills so they may reach their full potential.

Anyway, I know many people are in Leadership groups. I am a 2001 Lake Havasu City Chamber of Commerce Leadership Graduate and a 2008 Graduate for NAAR Leadership Course here in Flagstaff, and am a co-chair for this year's course beginning this fall. I am really looking in to how we can help our future leaders, our teens, establish these skills. Think about how you can help! And the books are free! (read the qualifications for the free books and fill out the online application)

BTW..... I encourage you to re-blog this post! Spread the word!
