      I'd like another shot at it @neph93,,,

      Those are my principles, and if you don't like them…
      Well, I have others.

        Of course @steelworker, you shall go to the ball!

        There is a certain beautiful symmetry to the tour taking two years to complete it's first leg and ending up with @Appfaff in January again. However I wonder who is still up for the continuation?

        I asked for people who did not want in to pm me but received nothing. On reflection this may not have been the best way forward, as it doesn't account for people who don't visit this thread anymore. So if anyone reading this wants out of the tour, please let me know.

        Going forward, we follow this list. When the  jacket holder is done with their four weeks he needs to contact the next person on the list. If they respond positively, in a timely fashion (lets say 48 hours), then that is where the jacket goes next. If not then get in touch with the next person on the list.

        I suggest that as we approach summer then we make a change to the schedule so that the jacket comes to me in Norway in July. I'll be able to use it regularly and it means the Germans can get it afterwards when things cool off a bit. @Rune in Denmark can join the tour at this point if he is still interested. Let me know what you think, gentlemen.

        Final suggestion. We've discussed touring the jacket until it dies, but that will probably mean it getting "lost" at some point. I'd like very much to avoid that, and all good things should come to a glorious end. I suggest that after this round we look at auctioning it for charity. That could be done in a number of ways.

        1. Open auction on the forum's marketplace. Anyone can bid, highest bidder wins.
        2. Closed auction for members of the tour, highest bid wins.
        3. Managed lottery. Everyone buys a ticket for a fixed price, the holder of the drawn ticket gets the jacket for life. Again this can be confined to members of the tour, or made open on the marketplace.

        Again, please do let me know what you think.

        Cheers,

        Reuben.

                Really cool ideas. I’m definitely in for the next go around and I like the idea of buying tickets for a managed lottery.

                    Yeah I am in. If you guys want it to take a hammering at work then cooler months would work best.

                    Like the idea of lottery and the money going to charity.

                              Tuesday’s are our company Sales Meeting. It’s quite the “work culture” win as we have 70-80% attendance from the company - and in a business where everyone in an independent contractor, that’s a Big win.

                              Sadly, for the tour jacket, the meetings are where Leadership has to dress a little
                              Fancy as we take photos with visitors from other Sotheby’s affiliates, new hires, and employees/staff with birthdays.

                              I started the day just like any other (by going to the gym) and then came home to
                              Get myself and the family ready.

                              My mom got me this Hario Cold Bree maker and it’s amazing - and Japanese!

                              Dressed for the occasion…

                              Happy Campers in the way to school!

                              Tunage for the ride to school

                              After our sales meeting, my department meets with the owners to discuss new projects, newsletters, and budgets

                              After our meetings, we toured a house that an agent I I locked up as a new listing for our company. A nice $5M house in Rosemary Beach three tiers off the sand. This one was built very progressively in 2012, and feels very “fresh,” - which is hard for these homes as they take. Beating from the Gulf and Salty air after only a few years.



                              Contined…

                                After RE-touring the Rosemary House, I headed back to my office on the East side of town.

                                An agent expanded her team and moved into a full office, so I took over her old space by bringing my huge IMac lol - I’m only here 1 day per week, but this year I’ve striving to be here two days per week as it’s our highest grossing sales office and needs to most marketing support

                                Although I am in a nice new routine in our new town, I do see the same people non-stop, so I’ve been trying to check out the CrossFit Gym nest my Eastern office.

                                They had an adorable gym dog who loved playing catch

                                    Wednesday’s are a real hump day for me, and usually end up being the busiest days for both my wife and I. It’s the first full day my team has during the week without a multi-hour meetings in the AM, so we have a tendency to be hustling all day.

                                    After coming back from the gym, I whipped up some coffee and breakfast. I’ve been on quite the Chemex Kick lately - thinking of even getting a small one for my office lol

                                    On days I work out, I make a Chocolate Kale
                                    Smoothie:
                                    1.5 cup kale
                                    10 oz almond milk

                                    2 tbsp peanut butter

                                    This is my western office in Destin. It’s where my team works out of mostly, but has the least amount of agents at it - even though our highest producing team works out of here.

                                        Very much so @Chris … luckily it’s just tastes like chocolate and peanut butter for the most part...

                                          Can’t believe we are already 9 days into January! Feels like 2020 is going to flash by…

                                          Lil’ Miss helped me with the Chemex duties

                                          Got to work and hit the ground running! I’ve felt behind the 8 ball all week

                                          We have a new development that I’m having my team building marketing assets for, and we got approval for a very simple logo yesterday.
                                          Here is the parapet of the front elevation

                                          Here is the logo we did

                                          One of our owners is redoing an old school brick house and turning it from a 400 sf box to a 3,000 sq foot modern home. I’d like to feature it in our Spring Magazine, so went by to check out the progress

                                          Came home and opened my Christmas present to myself!

                                          Made dinner

                                          Got the photos back from the new listing we toured the other day - his were far better than mine 🙂

                                          Have an awesome Friday!

                                            Converting a 400 sqft house into a 3000 sqft house? Wouldn't it be simpler to just tear it down and start over?
