Wendy's
Week
 The reno
delight I've shared with you over the past few weeks is ours!
This is a JV I am doing with Ana
Stankovic, Renovator Extraordinaire and guest speaker at our
upcoming event.
This event
will be THE
ONLY property event we are running in 2009. So book
today as this is your only opportunity to
attend an Affluencia property event this year.
The
revamped ONE DAY format includes a dedicated Number Crunching session
where Ana and I will share with you all the numbers for this
deal
and our plans for the reno delight. The date is Saturday 14th
March 2009. Full event details are here.
Until next week,
happy investing!

Selling Agents versus Buying
Agents
Have
you noticed that when you speak to Real Estate Agents, some will tell
you all types of useful information about a property and the vendor,
whereas others clam up like Fort Knox?
When you are buying a
property, it is great to have the agent tell you all about
it.
But that is not the agent you want to employ to sell your property,
because what do you think they’ll be telling all the
potential
buyers that inspect your property? Everything!
When you want to sell your property, you want the friendly but silent
type, not the chatterbox.
It is important to recognise there are good agents to sell your
property and good agents to buy from.
Never
confuse the two and always look for the good selling agents when you
are selling your property and the chatty agents to buy from when
looking for a property bargain.

Five
Minutes with...
Barbara
Gabogrecan of MCEI
(Marketing Communications Executives Chapter)
 Question 1
What
has been your biggest challenge in business and how did you overcome it?
Building
a data base of targeted interest groups and building a website and
knowing that people use it and find it useful. Both of these seemed to
have an interconnection and I approached them in a similar way. I
worked on the building/construction at least every week (never thinking
I had ‘finished’ – always adding new
information and updating old
information) and creating alliances and joint ventures – and
sometimes
simply joining other associations and attending networking events and
being proactive at them.
Question
2
If
you had to start your business again from scratch, what would you do
differently?
I
have just commenced a new business from scratch – and I am
not sure
that I will do anything differently – just do it quicker as
now I am
more confident with what I should do. My 2 month old website has just
been ranked by Google with a 2 (it is so exciting to see that it is
already being ranked); I have organised to do some specific training; I
have arranged for some joint ventures; I have a specific targeted niche
market. As my husband is now also working from home with me, I have
added a brainstorming session each morning (which was a bit hard to do
with just myself) and I expect that to bring things to a head sooner.
Question
3
Who
do you admire and why?
I
actually admire all the Micro and HBB business operators who are
prepared to take a risk and bring their vision to fruition with passion
and persistence. I am fortunate to know so many of them through the
Associations I work with and the Awards I organise – it is
all so
exciting!
Question 4
It
takes a lot of determination and dedication to succeed in
business. What keeps you motivated?
I am so lucky – this is one area that I
seldom struggle with. I think it is because as a youngster I did
Correspondence lessons for all of my primary schooling (and for Art in
secondary school) and learnt very early to set my own goals and if I
really wanted something to work hard for it and negotiate and bargain
if necessary. These skills have kept me in good stead over the years.
Occasionally I feel swamped with too much work (and that can kill
motivation) so I try to take a few moments and think about what it is I
want to achieve – and I usually get so excited that I just
have to get
moving again!
Question
5
What
are your 3 biggest success tips?
1. Be opportunistic and take
action – if
opportunity does not present itself, then
make it happen! But it
is no good having an opportunity available if you do not
take action that will
lead it into something
2. Dare
to be Different – make your brand include your personal
image. I wear
hats
and have
become known for them.
3. Help
others – I have a philosophy of ‘what can I do for
you?’ rather than
‘what’s in
it for me’
(WIFM). Over and over again, I have found that WIFM is the outcome of
my
philosophy.
