Firefly Realty November 2022 Team News

Last month, we said September was busy; but October was a whole new level for Firefly! October was full of client events, sponsorships, and team business planning. While it left us all a bit exhausted, it was also fulfilling and completely worthwhile. 

On October 14, all of our team members set out to deliver pumpkins to our past clients who live locally. All in all, we delivered 212 pumpkins! We also found that we have outdated addresses for some of our past clients, so if you live in the Asheville area and did not get a pumpkin delivered, let us know and we'll be sure we don't miss you next time we pop by with a treat! 

On October 21, we sponsored Hall Fletcher Elementary School's Fall Fletcher event - there were more than 200 people who attended, and we helped raise more than $700 for the school's PTO from our raffle prize of a gift basket from Asheville Goods and a gift certificate to Sparky's Toys & Gifts. Just two days later, we held our Client, Friends & Family Appreciation Event at the Eliada Corn Maze - we had a warm, sunny day to see so many of those who are near and dear to our business, and it was a blast! 

Once the work week began, we shifted gears to look toward 2023. We were honored to travel to Greenville, S.C., on October 25 for a daylong seminar with Katie's business coach Bill Middleton. We were able to connect with some of Bill's other clients from across the region and learned valuable information to help guide our clients through the shifting market. We came home with some incredible data and valuable ideas that help us to improve our service to those we work with. The next day, our team gathered together back in Asheville, along with Bill, to put some of those ideas into action plans for our individual and team goals for next year. It's always a good exercise to reflect on the past year and see where we shined and where we can improve, and it was energizing and inspiring to think about what's possible in 2023. There were even some team building games and activities that had us laughing and crying throughout the day! 

This month, we've been reflecting a lot on gratitude. Gratitude for the leadership from Katie and Bill, for the support from our office at Keller Williams Professionals, and for one another - we really do have a special team and we are so thankful for the dynamic we have. But most of all, we've been buzzing about how wonderful our clients, vendors, business partners and those we consider friends are. Between the pumpkin deliveries, events and our upcoming Thanksgiving Pie giveaway, we've made such meaningful connections and have had some of the best conversations with folks in our world.  And if you are reading this email, that means that you, too, are in our world, and we are so incredibly grateful for you. 

We so appreciate all of our clients and friends who continue to do business with us and refer your friends and family to us. If there's anyone you ever think of who we should speak to about real estate, give us a call at (828) 771-2339 or fill out this form.
