Ready, Set, Go – It’s Connection Season
October kicks off the holiday season, and an important time of year for your business.
Whether you are on the pumpkin spice latte, Christmas music from now until January camp or the I’d rather skip the next few months and hibernate until the new year – there’s no denying. What you do now, will lay the foundation for the next 6 months in your business. From connecting to planning, this is THE best time.
For this week, let’s focus on connecting. Because our business is built on relationships. You can have the best online presence and the fanciest marketing plan, but if you aren’t connecting, you aren’t getting clients.
So take 15 minutes, get out your calendar and plan how you are going to connect with your clients between now and the end of the year. Here are some things to think about:
- What events can you invite someone to? It doesn’t have to be big. Think pumpkin patches, Garden d’Lights at the botanical gardens. Fun things that are already going on that don’t cost a lot and are easy to do.
- Planning client gifts is more fun when I start with choosing a small business to support and highlight. Is there a local bakery or crafts person that you could partner with for a fun gift?
- If you divided your database into 3 groups could you call everyone between now and the end of the year? Think Halloween / Thanksgiving / mid December.
- November is gratitude month. Could you write 5 note cards a day letting your clients know how much you appreciate them?
What are your favorite ways to connect with clients?
To your success!

The only thing worse than feeling stuck, is…
It’s Not Just Your Story – It’s Everyone Else’s Too
I’ve spent years working on my own limiting beliefs — but I discovered one at the Abraham Hicks workshop last weekend that I had completely missed. Esther, aka Abraham Hicks, has been a leader in mindset, energy, and attraction for decades. My mom actually took my sister and me to a workshop 30 years ago,…
Bet On Yourself VS The Market
Last week I shared how the end of August is a weird time – wanting to savor summer, while also shifting back into work mode. Turns out I’m not the only one this happens to! Thank you for all of the notes and feedback. I’ve found that when I’m not taking action, I spend WAY…
I Used To Dread The Last 2 Weeks Of August
Thirty years in real estate has taught me a lot of things. One of the best is this: I can finally see my own patterns. Like the one where I get twitchy every year mid-August. Part of me wants summer to stretch on forever. Part of me is itching for routine, order, and the satisfaction…
Beliefs = Actions = Results – It Matters Where You Start
August is an interesting month for me. I’m savoring the relaxed pace of summer, while also starting to think about Fall and shifting back into work mode. With a shift in focus I naturally start wondering what will happen. Will I be busy? Where will my clients come from? Will they be buyers or sellers?…
What Do You LOVE About Your Business?
I’m back!!! There’s been a lot going on lately, (more on that in a later post) and it’s been a few weeks since I’ve sent you a note. Needless to say, I’ve missed you! I’ve been moving through a lot of ‘life’ lately, and there’s been a common thread in my business that has surprised…
How Do You Want Summer To Feel?
Summer is often a season of expectations not meeting reality. I used to think my perfect summer meant iced tea on the patio while reading every day. For the record, that’s never happened. And for a while, I felt bad about it — like I was missing out, like I was doing summer wrong. Until…
You’re Not Behind, There Are Infinite Options
Your in box is about to fill up with emails about us being 1/2 through the year. You know – the ones that ask if you’re on track with your goals, and offer a solution to whip you into shape for the next 6 months. If you are having a great year – I celebrate…
Letting Go Of The Hustle Sounds Great, But You’ve Got a Business To Run
To be clear, I am 100% for less hustle, more flow, manifesting, receiving, regulating my nervous system, and letting things be easier. But somewhere between: “That sounds amazing” and “I’m a real estate agent – I need to generate clients and sell houses to earn an income” Things can get confusing. Because no matter how…
The Beauty of Not Doing It Alone
Thank you for being part of this community! I learned something beautiful and powerful last week. It was vulnerable to post about recalibrating, and being in the messy middle of grieving. Yet the conversations, emails, texts and notes have meant to much. To know that we are not alone is one of the greatest gifts…
