Networking is super important both as a real estate agent and entrepreneur. I have several networking groups that I visit frequently. Tuesdays are always Forney Area Networking Group (FANG). We meet at noon at Alfredo’s Steakhouse (111 E USHWY 80, Forney) and the meeting lasts about an hour. Every meeting has opportunities for elevator pitch and there is also a presenter. Today’s presenter was Joe Roberts with Secured Mobile Notary Services.
Yes, I am a notary too, but Joe has this as his full time job and does online notary and much more than me. It was very interesting to listen to his presentation as I have been thinking of adding on the online part of notarizations. Joe was also the notary swearing me into office!
Not the best of taking pictures at networking meetings. I am too busy talking to people simply. Even though there was a smaller group attending today, I got lots done. I did get a picture with my friend Lindsey Schroeder!
I headed straight over to Rockwall afterwards and the restaurant La Madeleine. I have not been there for maybe 10 years. Shame on me. Because they have some of the food that I absolutely miss. French pies and bakeries… Nope, again, I am useless on taking pictures when I am out and about but I can guarantee you that the Chocolate Mousse Cake I had was absolutely delicious!
Here, I had a one-on-one with Cherie Jones. She works with health insurances. And was that appropriate. I have to do the open enrollment for my insurance at work. I did some research and got help by another agent whom said that what I got through my EMS job probably was my best option. Cherie was able to help me make sure I chose the best option for me (which was the one I had chosen last year). It is usually not how one-on-one’s are but it was so amazingly helpful to me! I learned so much! And I was quite proud that I had made the right choice last year.
I probably learned more about insurance and what she does than she did about me but who cares…
Once I got home it was basically just to pack a tea order and head out again. I just had to go to Edgewood and deliver an order that came in when I was on my way to Forney. I like doing deliveries and it’s only 15 min drive at the most to Edgewood from Wills Point so it was very close this time.
Busy day today, now time to get ready for tomorrow!
