In January, it's always a busy month for us…we are implementing new marketing initiatives in the new year, and we work on our Annual Award and Recognition Breakfast for our staff and agents.It's a great project for us to work on, one that we get to think about the past year, review our accomplishments, and pack it into an award presentation complete with video, presentations, framed awards and a professional photographer, our friend Jackie from J Harper Photography. We held our annual award recognition breakfast at the Common Man Inn & Spa in Plymouth NH. They have a great couple of function rooms, projectors, lots of parking and yummy food! And with agents coming from all over, this tends to be a nice central location for us! Here are some of our highlights we shared at the ceremony:
As a firm, we take our commitment to customer service very seriously, after all, our logo is "A Reputation for Results!" After closings we survey all of our clients and customers and get a report on how we are doing.

As the holiday music flowed today at the office, I had a moment of reflection. As a firm we have grown larger in the last few years, and we've learned a few things along the way. One lesson - sometimes each office has to take on a project that is close to them, rather than one big project for all the offices. Here is just a little bit of some of the activities each office is participating in this holiday season. In our Plymouth and Holderness offices they are hosting the "Love Light Trees" . The "Love Light" trees are at 13 local businesses, including our two offices. These trees are a fundraising effort for the Hospice Program at Pemi-Baker Community Health. Each tree is decora...
For years I lived in the country, where there were no streetlights and where you couldn't see another home from your own. In the numerous years of living out in the country I had not once had an experience with a bear. Honestly I hadn't even seen one in the wild until a couple of years ago while I was on "caravan" with my fellow agents. (Caravan is when we travel around to tour the homes and land that are new listings at Peabody & Smith so we can all see them.)
