This Year’s Going to Be Different (Belief Re-Patterning)
Presented by Suze Casey (Founder of Belief Re-Patterning)
Tuesday, January 27 9:30am – 12:30pm
How do you change or shift the beliefs that cause the behaviour that limits you, and consciously create the beliefs and behaviours that support the life and the reality you desire? Suze will take the group through her innovative and powerful Belief Re-patterning™ process to set you up for success. This session is a MUST ATTEND for anyone looking to take their lives to another level.

Belief Re-patterning™ addresses this question through a safe, practical and efficient method of releasing beliefs that have limited you. This technique is a synthesis of psychology, energy work, kinesthetics, an understanding of brain development and learning styles and positive thinking strategies.

Internet Video That Drives Business(TM)
http://www.LookMa.net

There is a vast amount of real estate marketing competing for the same eyeballs on the Internet. So how does a real estate agent set themselves, and their clients’ listings, apart from the crowd? Their marketing plan needs to include engagement objects such as pictures, floor plans and video.

Video has the unique ability to tell a story that appeals to the eyes, ears and rationale. That’s why over 80% of Internet users watch video (Universal McCann, April 2008). Video also shows up more in Google Universal Search results (Comscore, January 2008). But few real estate agents are using video in their marketing and even fewer are exploring video beyond those picture collages called “virtual tours”.

So does your agent use Internet video to market themselves and their home listings? Maybe they should.

You can save a ton of money by purchasing a used Timeshare, but before you purchase second hand, there are a few things you need to watch out for first. Sometimes buying used means you will miss out on brand name perks associated with buying the Timeshare new, like using the Timeshare at brand hotels and getting loyalty points for using your Timeshare. But the most important thing to concern yourself with is making sure you don’t inherit the original owner’s debt when you purchase the used Timeshare. A great deal that looked like it was saving you money may end up costing you if the original owner has failed to pay his taxes and other fees on the property. Make sure you use a local real estate agent in the area you are purchasing the Timeshare, and look up the seller of the Timeshare in the better business bureau database to see if there have been any problems with them in the past. Buying a previously used Timeshare can be a great deal that will save you a lot of money… just make sure you proceed with caution and don’t end up getting screwed.
