I love a good deal, and so does everyone else. Make them use their scissors for your move in special this weekend!
Cutting your budget a little, up your resident retention and go green all in the same step!
Trying to sell by screaming in someone's ear all day works about as well as trying to get to the bottom of the ocean without an oxygen tank. Either way, at the end of it, you're dead in the water.
I wrote this piece for our January newsletter, and I really liked the ideas, so I wanted to share them with everyone else out there, even if they weren't on our property mailing list! Enjoy!
If you learn only one thing about me as a person, I ask that it be the indisputable fact that I am an Insatiable and Voracious reader. After being raised by a librarian, I feel like a piece of me is starving if I don't have my nose in a book at least once a day. Alan swears that I keep my local branch of Half Price Books in business with my quenchless vice. And I think I'm okay with that. I can stimulate my brain AND the economy in one fail swoop.
This is a list of the books I have read during 2008 and eventually, I hope it will include a short review of each as well. Enjoy!
The math just isn't in our favor right now, folks. Maybe we need a new formula for success.
As a young child, I had an English teacher who was obsessed with what she called, "the verb words," because they were active and led to more and more action in writing. She used to make us stand up and act out all the verb words in our papers when we read them to the class. I liked the writing part of that class, but the acting out "verb word" madness not so much. I was the fat kid, you understand. But what I did take away from that teacher is the importance of action, not only in our writing but also in our doing.
Plant some seeds now to grow some awesome groups and resident retention in the future!
I'm a hippie at heart. In third grade, I decided that ecology was cool and have pretty much been hooked on saving the dolphins and trees ever since. I didn't know it was science until I was way too far sucked in to decide it was too hard to understand. Science is sneaky that way. But, to me, dolphins and trees are totally worth it.
I'm going to need to know where doggy day care is, where a good hair stylist is, and where I can buy a new toaster.
