At my regular Seattle BizBuilders meeting today, Lesli Dullum LMP, RC Optimal Wellness Consulting, presented. She is from the Silverdale area and braved the ferry to come and see us here in Seattle. I was impressed; she walked us through a little exercise to help clarify why we are in business and why this business at that. There is a principle in philosophy called congruency, that life is better when everything is aligned. When a person is passionate about all aspects of their life and following through with what drives them, life works for the better. For example why am I in real estate? People, well ok not just people, but really I love working with people in education, goal achieving, relationship, and a little sales too. Does how I currently run my business/life reflect that? Yes.What do I sell? At first you might think houses, but what I really sell is piece of mind and knowledge or know-how. Does how I currently run my business reflect that? Yes.Who are my clients? Well at first anyone who could fog a mirror, but now that I have been in the business a little while I am concentrating my efforts to those I can really benefit first time buyers and second time move-ups. While I have worked with 1031 exchanges and empty nesters, the bulk of my real estate business has been with the people that I can be of most help to, those who are in need of education and piece of mind.I am glad Lesli braved the storm and rode out here to Seattle today, this real estate agent found great benefit from her presentation.The Guide To Seattle Real Estate

I am a member of a Seattle business networking group called BizBuilders. Basically it is a group of professionals that get together every Thursday for an early lunch to talk about what they are up to and to pass along referrals. Working as a real estate professional in Seattle I have found this meeting to be very helpful not only with referral but to learn from other successful “solopreneurs.” We gather at the Sixth Ave Inn in downtown Seattle at 10:30 every Thursday. I have met and completed business with a Home Inspector, Lease Broker, Restaurant Consultant, Photographer, several Non-Profit Charities, a Mortgage Broker, Credit Repair counselor, and a Financial Advisor. I know that I have forgotten a few of the guys and gals. We are always looking for other great professionals to join us, it is an exclusive group. By that I mean that only one representative from each profession is allowed not that we are too good for anyone. Do you belong to any networking organizations? If so which ones and what have your results been?
