November 2020 | Holiday Season

Blog, Newsletter · December 7, 2020

We are officially headed into the last month of 2020. And what a crazy, unexpected year it has been. As we close out 2020, we wanted to give thanks to our wonderful friends and clients for their continued support. Our team is growing and we are excited for the future of our business and continually developing our team to be the best we can be for our clients. To learn more about the WIRE team, watch this short promotional video that our lovely brokerage, Spyglass Realty, put together for us.

Team Retreat

Listed from left to right: Karen, Emma, Cindy, Morgan, Isabel and Emily

In November, the WIRE team got together for the first time in many months to do some business planning, team building and celebrating.

Our team has grown quite a bit in 2020, adding Karen and Cindy to the mix. It has been such a blessing to get to work with such smart, motivated, conscientious women and watch the team grow and thrive as a result.

We chose Lake Austin Spa as our location, and Emily did a flawless job of pulling together the details. We spent about 2 hours working on visions and business planning for 2021, enjoyed a healthy lunch and then finished out the day with individual spa treatments and some time by the pool.

If you haven’t been to Lake Austin Spa I highly recommend. The grounds are beautiful, the staff is amazing and the massages were perfect.

And if you’re looking for some business planning inspiration, I highly recommend this workbook that The Hero Nation put together, which is what we used to get our thoughts in order.

Google Reviews: Will you help us out?

One way that people find their real estate agents is by reading online reviews. We have recently launched our official Google Business page to establish WIRE Team in the Austin Real Estate Market. We value your input and think sharing your experience would help guide others through their realtor selection process.

If you have been a previous client of ours and would like to share your experience working with our team, we would love if you could leave us a review: https://g.page/wire-austin/review?gm

Stay warm everyone and have a great holiday season.
