Think Outside of the Box

The news is good and bad. The economy is up and down. Business is on and off. Ideas stop and start. Companies hire and fire. This represents bouncing along the bottom of the recession. It is time to reassess our goals, re-brand our talents, and think out-side-of-the-box. What talents and experiences can you draw upon that can translate into future business.

From a real estate perspective, I am assisting over 15 individuals look for a new job in Charlotte, NC. I provide them a "second pair of eyes" and send them job opportunities which they may not have seen. There are multitude of job opening sources, including networking sites. Many of these individuals will find a new opportunity in Charlotte and most likely they will accomplish this on their own. From a Realtor perspective, I am creating a sphere of influence which didn't exist before. My effort helps people today and without a cost or a fee.

It is good to help others when it is difficult times for everyone. Work at expanding your network and connections so you are ready for a smooth transition into better economic times. Have a great weekend.
