What a week!

Time is flying as we enter the last week of February.  With record colds this past week and the snow last night it definitely feels like we are in the heart of winter.  The other tell tale sign in our house is everyone is either sick or getting sick or fighting getting sick.  A mad cycle.  Despite the weather and all it brings, I attended a couple great networking events and met some interesting new people this week. 

Thursday evening I met Carrie and Donald Winn of That Girl Social out of Havertown,  PA.  Some of you may remember the sitcom "That Girl"... Both very engaged in the social media world, we had a great discussion and I got their take on how to effectively and appropriately use social media personally and professionally.  We also talked family like all parents can't help doing when away from their children, and gave me a lot of insight on who they are and not just what they do.  From there it was off to catch a friend of mine singing in his barber shop quartet. 

Earlier in the week I had another opportunity to share my home buyer seminar information with a group of great networkers thanks to  group organizer Brandon Dietrich.  Brandon hosts a MeetUp.com Casual Business Card Exchange Group.  Check it out.  Meanwhile Erin and I are gearing up for her to be licensed in just a few weeks now, and she will be hitting the ground running with new clients.  By the way, if you know anyone who would like to interview for a back office position with our Team, please ask them to reach out and send over a resume.  2015 is going to bring transition and more growth again.  I will always focus on balance in life, but we are jumping out of our shoes with excitement at Team Chapis to continue with the plan.  We are having lots of fun while growing the business.

Later this week I will tell you about a fundraiser we are sponsoring in memory and respect for a close friend, Nathan Harney, and how we are asking for help to fight to find the cure for Tay-Sachs Disease.  As always, if you know anyone who you think needs the advice of a real estate professional, we are never too busy for any of your referrals.  Stay busy and stay warm!
