More laundry on. Nearing 9:30. Three hours. Interesting having me come in at 12:30. In no mood to go down there, be around all those people, the crowd, that uncomfortable ro… | Continue reading
Jury Duty. Finally got around to doing all the receipts piled on desk. First thing I did. Don’t have to be at courthouse or that admin building in Santa Rosa till 12:30. Dreading it like you wo… | Continue reading
….. Bought two new journals at the Walgreens on Front Street I think. Two fancier ones with leather on outside. One for me, the other for Kastle. First real site visit today… | Continue reading
Not sales. At all. Loving conversations, people, being a friend and resource, not a robotic rep. Sales is also selling yourself. That your goals need to be of more altitude. And that they are emine… | Continue reading
back and forth when it comes to sales. The actual word. Why do we have to say it over and over? Fixate on it, like it’s some all-solving monosyllabic song, or incantation that takes you to some car… | Continue reading

storm in comparison to any perceived storm in the past few years… Somewhat of a white knuckle nerve-racking drive but even still it was relaxing listening to the music. I thought about going straig… | Continue reading
Not only embracing the fact that I’m new to real estate, multifamily, and prop tech, but celebrating it. Using it to start conversations… seeking education and shared experience. Like m… | Continue reading
….. Been in office for about ten or fifteen minutes. Settling in. Aims are simple, getting in character. Sipping rest of latte. Conversations…. Start more. Coupl… | Continue reading

Food not here yet. Nearly done with glass, will order another. Not in the mood for pinot or anything red. Thought about it, but….. Wine is my beat. That … | Continue reading
Just wanted to write out the whole date for once. Day any everything. In office, kids picked up, first latte from Café Noto in a while. Some aims for day, but no harsh self-emphasis and pointing… | Continue reading

Jack much better, thank EVERYTHING. Latte almost done and wanting more caffeine but resisting. Already starting on NaNoWriMo effort. 400+ words… a sales story but completely against sales. Be… | Continue reading
Little chill time, as Emma said “Today’s our chill day, and tomorrow’s Monday Funday because it’s Halloween!” I want to be like them, more playful and just taking all scenes as they land. Dad teach… | Continue reading
Sales and what it is, what it’s perceived to be. How they say at this new company “No one wants to talk to sales people…” So I’m not doing that. I’m approaching this as a writer, blogger. That’s… | Continue reading

And it’s my inexperience with it, not the instruction. I’m learning, and yes there’s a learning curve but I only need to know the tech so well, as I found out as an AE at Sonic. Just slow.. ask q… | Continue reading
Training over. Emails sent, Jack home because he didn’t feel well this morning. He’s feeling better now, and I’m in a bit of a cruise control. Excited to be back in office on California Street, … | Continue reading

Taking a second, reviewing notes from the first training this morning. On sales, from a sales guy in real estate, New York-based during much of his stories but now in Jersey. Talking ab… | Continue reading
Have two calls to make, my first sales calls responding to inbound leads. Clearing desk, simplifying and trying to go as paperless as I can. Remove clutter, simplify and singularize and consolida… | Continue reading
Didn’t think I’d make it down here to the poz loft office, and definitely didn’t think I’d make ti over 1000. And a haiku. 9 of the 1000 set for project. I’ll go upstairs in a minute but not with… | Continue reading
