And the Beat Goes On ................

Let me see. The last time I posted was back on July 18th. And guess what? Except for a lot of new folks looking, 2 repeat visitors, and a farewell party, nothing more has really happened. Plus, with all the "gloom & doom" reporting on everything from the NBC nightly News to CNN, I guess it really is a buyers market out there.

We've dropped the price another 5K, so the house is now priced 10K below our original asking price. And we're probably not through yet. Oh well ................ all it takes is one, that one motivated buyer.

Did I mention we had the DS&S Farewell Party? Well, we did, and it was great. Lots of old and new friends came to wish us well. If you'd like to see the T-Shirts, go to My Shagmiser Site and follow the links. It's pretty easy.

Check those links down the right hand side of this blog. There are some opportunities there to be had, plus if you take advantage of any of them, you'll be helping me stay out of the Old Shaggers Home.

TTFN ...... and we'll post here again soon.

It's been awhile - still no offers


Well, it's been awhile since I've last posted, but still no offers, which is probably why I haven't posted in awhile, 12 days to be exact. We've had a lot of showings, but just (again) a lot of lookers. But school here starts about the middle of next month, so anyone out there needing to get thier kids registered in the Richardson School District will have to get a move on if they wanted into our area.

But we've been really busy updating this house as we go. New flowers in the front yard, reconfigured and de-cluttered back den, and some other minor things to enhance the overall look of the place.

The World Launch actually launched on time, and we're now an affiliated member of VMDirect and Hello World (video email capabilities for only $9.99 a month). If you're interested doing video emails and a free 30 day account, just let me know and I'll shoot a copy of the CD out to you. But do it fast because I've only got 7 of these CD's left. Click on the hyperlinks above for full details.

Here's some other new ventures: The Free Card Matrix, DollarsPond, IGAM, and last but not least, Maryanne Myer's new Safelist (a really great deal). Also, to get more advertising bang for the buck, here are some really good resources: Traffic Hoopla, Profit Messaging, and
Mail Your Ad. All 3 are really good choices for your advertising dollar (better than PPC's anyway).

That's it for now. If anything breaks, you all will be the first to know through the here blog.

It's Over for the Fourth

We, we actually had some showings over the fourth, almost had an offer. Closest we've come yet, so maybe things are picking up. We prayed over our newly buried St. Joseph statue in the backyard, hoping that will speed things along. Never leave a stone unturned, or in this case, unburied. If you're not familiar with the story or the legend, check Cecil's Mailbag.

Our Eniva business is starting to grow. For more information on this health supplement product, called a nutraceutical, check our Eniva Website. I've also started learning about video emailing, and streaming internet videos in general. Really cool stuff, and you can learn more about it at my VMDirect website. Actually, the best place to see what's happening is Hello World. If you're like me, and are interested in the business, then check out the Ready-Set-Launch website to learn all about it. Their use of streaming video is really good.

The party planning is progressing nicely, or so they tell me. Check out the details here, and follow the links.
