RevJim 0 #29 August 27, 2005 Nope. Newcastle is AWSOME! I wish more bars up here carried it, but to be fair, I bowl in a couples league in the winter with my wife (hold the bowling jokes, she doesn't jump, and this is US time), the the bowling alley has Newcastle ON TAP! Many, MANY Sunday evenings she has driven me home, due to that evil, evil tap.... Well the tap, and the fact that Sunday is also $1.75 pint night...It's your life, live it!

Hipwrddude 0 #39 August 27, 2005 Since I am searching for a home, and have been around the block, I feel like sitting down and imparting my two cents (or buck three-eighty) about promoting yourself as a realtor... Start with the feeling you want your clients to get about you. They're looking for someone who can help them find the life they seek in their new home. They want someone who's confident. They want someone to advise them on what they need to do to get their new home. They need an advisor--who knows them. They need someone who knows where they came from and understands where they'd like to go, without telling them what they should like. Prep them. They need a quiet yet informative partner. So how do you convey the power of your importance to them in a manner they desire? Appeal to them as someone who can resolve their fears, who is so sharp, you can find them the diamond in the rough that suits their needs. It's all about the feeling and not necessarily about what you say unless what you say has content that embodies an emotion, or information like a surgical tool. For a card, how about you dressed sharply (dress shirt with suit jacket under your arm) with a bunch of your former customers standing behind you pointing at you and you with your arms extended. Okay, grab some friends. The back of the card is your skydiving instructional card. They'll eat it up. You're always the starter in your own life!

Amanda965 0 #43 August 27, 2005 Quote I always feel wierd while wearing a tie telling people that I am a skydiving instructor. It has almost always been well recieved, though. I had a similar situation /thought occur this week. I am the administrator at a retirement community. I feel weird telling all of my staff and the residents what I do sometimes too, but last week they actually asked me to make a Friendship Village advertisement with me skydiving. I am thinking of something to do tomorrow. If I do a banner or something, I think it will get all bent up and unreadable... Good luck to you, I have some thinking to do too : )Blue skies and SAFE landings! ~Amanda~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skykat108 0 #44 August 27, 2005 Most of the time if you take an image, and edit it with wording and what not, they use adobe photoshop. Send it to the place that is going to said advertisement as a .pdf file and it won't get distorted. they'll be able to fix it =D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SpeedRacer 1 #46 August 27, 2005 Not skydiving related but: I know this guy who is a realtor, and he also plays in a Grateful Dead cover band. He has a business ad that reads: "Ten years of suspiciously-smiling clients!" Speed Racer -------------------------------------------------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyhi 24 #47 August 27, 2005 When in Florida, I jumped with Mike Luttrell, who was also a realtor. His "Homes You'll Fall For" appeared on his website, business card, and his vehicle. He once showed up at a demo from work in his business attire and then went right back to selling afterwards. A dedicated guy and he throws a great party.Shit happens. And it usually happens because of physics. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ACMESkydiver 0 #50 August 27, 2005 "Don't fall for a realtor that won't take risks for you. -Happy customers and safe landings for X years." Ok, that was the serious one (though that other idea is still on it's way...I can feel it!) Here's the priceless one: Or you could always buy your customers T-shirts with that pic that say "My realtor has bigger balls than your realtor." ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.
