"Marketing Department"
We announced this at the Potomac Sales Meeting last week. I wanted to make sure everyone knew of a new service that will be available in the offices starting this week. We have formed a partnership with Vatsana Brundage and Indrani Murukutla to help the agents with marketing in the offices. Starting tomorrow and every Tuesday moving forward Indrani will be at the Potomac office from 9:30-12:30 and the Germantown office from 1:30-4:30. Their prices are very reasonable and the quality of their work is top notch. Please stop by when you have a chance to introduce yourself, here is a link to their website.
Some of you have been talking about the golf tournament, party bus or dinner but have not signed up yet. Everything needs to be in by Thursday this week so we can give a final count to the club. Love to have as many of you involved as possible :)
Enjoy the coffee,
Joe
INSPIRATION FOR TODAY:
"The manner in which it is given is worth more than the gift."
~ Pierre Corneille (1606-1684)
JOIN THE VOLUNTEER BRIGADE!
Back in the '70s, CB radios became popular, especially among the nation's truckers. You could tune in Channel 19 and listen to a constant chatter among truckers and others with radios. If you were traveling on an interstate highway, you could get info on traffic, weather, wreck scenes to avoid, radar traps, and other useful tidbits. It was like there was a whole other world of activity going on around you IF you had a CB radio. Those who didn't were oblivious to the activity - yet it was still there.
The same is true of the volunteer brigade - those who offer their time and talents to worthy causes without reward. In any given community, there is a work force that operates 24/7 without any expectation of reward. If you're not one of them, you are probably oblivious to their daily actions to serve the community - but they are out there working whether or not you know it.
One example that comes to mind is a recent wreck scene. At 1:00 AM a vehicle traveling at over 90 mph left the road, went over an embankment, and hit the bottom upside down. A witness to the crash was amazed to see about 15 firefighters, EMTs, and rescue squad volunteers on the scene within 5 minutes after the wreck was reported. The witness asked in surprise, "Where did you guys come from?" One minute traffic was normal, and those 15 volunteers were in their warm beds. Five minutes later they were saving a life.
There are many ways to make a life-altering contribution to others as a volunteer. Most are not as glamorous as saving a life, yet all contribute to the many unmet needs of community members. Each of us has talents that can be put to use for those in need. A little self-examination will help identify your potential contribution. With all the blessings we enjoy in this country, each of us should make an effort to reach out to others. Why not join the volunteer brigade today?
