Amazingly Allen, The IMHA and the Chairman’s Reception

Amazingly Allen, The IMHA and the Chairman’s Reception

It is my hope this upcoming weekend to carve out enough time to do justice to Bob Thieman and all who made Lobby day at the IMHA annual meeting such a fine function. It is also my intent to share some aspects of the Chairman’s Reception at the IMHA last night – or at least those parts of it that event which can be publicly shared…

…for example, I could tell you that I must vow to never, ever again to be without my ‘good camera’ close at hand. There were too many Kodak moments – okay, my current preferred camera of choice is a Sony – where words alone will not do justice, and where my cell phone’s camera won’t produce the quality or clarity that was needed!

For example, it was quite impressive to see a room full of adults be dazzled as George Allen performed feats of legerdemain before our very eyes

Turning Lemons into Lemonade

Turning Lemons into Lemonade
by Tony Kovach

On of my favorite Zig Ziglar quotes is this:

“When life hands you lemons, make Lemonade.”

If every time a business encountered a problem or situation, it approached that challenge with a solution orientation, how much further ahead would that business be? If we personally took those sour lemon situations and made them into lemonade, how much further ahead would you be or I be?

The Future is Calling Today

As a result of last week’s article referenced in last week’s blog, linked below http://www.mhmarketingsalesmanagement.com/blogs/tonykovach/positive-no-cost-public-relations/ a mover and shaker in the real estate development world gave me a call. We met on Thursday for breakfast. We met again Saturday for lunch, a ground level tour of his model homes in Chicago. The vision this gent …

Positive No Cost Public Relations

Positive No Cost Public Relations…

…People in our business often complain about media bias against the HUD Code manufactured housing industry in particular. While there is no doubt a common negative perception, there is a sure way to change that and that is through one on one direct efforts. You don’t need to win everyone over, just enough people to keep you busy and profitable. Newspaper editors are often willing to share a different perspective. If you approach them professionally and often enough (don’t bug them to death, don’t be a total stranger either – some place in between) so they think of you when a need comes up for them. Magazines are interested in topical stories that fit their publication’s theme.

Running the Path

Running the Path

We are all on a professional journey. We all have our ‘professional path’ that we run daily. There are things we do that are important, and to borrow from the Franklin-Covey method for a moment, there are things that we do that are less important. Okay, if we are honest, some of what we do is just a waste of time.
What is important for a professional in our business is to stay informed about the manufactured housing industry and our place in it. We should know some of the names, some of the ‘movers and shakers’ and the issues. If we do, we are arguably better off for it, because we can better plan our own professional efforts.
