His and hers lists help market couple’s home

18. September 2010 · Comments Off · Categories: Cars, Economy, Family, Home, News, Real Estate, Tech, Video · Tags: , , , , , , , , , , ,

Tina Haisman needed to stand out.

Her family’s home at 11471 Persimmon Court had been on the market for three months and had been shown to about 10 prospective buyers with little fanfare.

“We’ve had people come to look at our house two and three and four times and tell us they loved it but they would go back to Canada or something and say ‘Oh, we’ll be back in a month,’ ” Haisman said.

Haisman, 37, her husband Paul and their two young children moved to the Chicago area for Paul’s information technology job. The family became frustrated with the failed attempts to sell their 2,280-square foot, four-bedroom home, which is located in Gateway and listed for sale at $269,900.

“The problem is there are so many homes,” Haisman said. “People have plenty of time to search and that sense of urgency that used to be there when you were shopping for a home – that you better make a bid on it if you want it or you’ll lose it – that sense of urgency is not there.”

So Haisman, owner of Tina Haisman Public Relations, did what any PR pro would do. She began strategizing ways to draw attention to the 19-year-old dwelling.

To help them come up with a marketing idea, Haisman and her husband decided to first create a list of what they liked about their home – a brainstorming technique some real estate agents suggest to sellers prior to showing a property.

Paul typed up his ideas and e-mailed his version of the list to his wife. When she read his top 10 selling points, Haisman completely disagreed with her husband on the home’s best features.

“As I was reading it I thought, ‘Oh my gosh. I would change half the things on here.’ It was not what I thought at all,” she said.

The couple realized how differently men and women sometimes view a home’s attributes and decided to each create their own top 10 list. Whereas stellar landscaping, a split floor plan and vaulted ceilings made the cut for Haisman, her husband focused on technical aspects such as the new roof, cable wiring and hurricane panels.

“My top 10 list is more about the beauty of the home,” Haisman said. “My husband’s list is more of the functional, practical, manly man’s list. I don’t think a woman would care as much that you get free hot water from the air conditioning as a guy would.”

The real estate agent the Haismans were working with at the time posted their dueling top 10 lists to their home listing on Realtor.com. The agent created a flier about the husband and wife’s selling points for the home and e-mailed it to agents on the Lee County Multiple Listing Service. Several local agents applauded the creativity and asked if they could use the husband-wife list idea with their clients.

Haisman then sent press releases to news outlets near Boston, Minneapolis, Detroit, Chicago and Columbus, Ohio – areas traditionally home to Southwest Florida snowbirds.

The day she sent the release, 30 people viewed Haisman’s home listing on Realtor.com. More than 70 people interacted with the media release – meaning they saved it to their computers, printed it or clicked on links within it. It received approximately 40,000 headline impressions, or the number of times people viewed pages that included the headline for the release.

In addition, Haisman – who was reading Daniel Pink’s “A Whole New Mind” at the time, which discusses, among other things, the importance of storytelling in business and marketing – created a blog in an attempt to create a personality for the home she and her family lived in for nine years. On her blog, Haisman posted home photos and has written about everything from winds the home withstood during hurricanes Charley and Wilma to the fun of neighborhood block parties on Persimmon Court.

“I wanted to tell the stories so maybe people can envision their family living there and creating their own memories,” she said.

The mother and public relations professional tweets about her home and blog, posts information about it on Facebook and has asked some friends to post the information on their Facebook pages as well.

Marla Martin, spokeswoman for the Florida Association of Realtors, called the Haisman top 10 lists “very creative” and she said she hadn’t heard of that tactic before. Still, Martin said she is not surprised by the family’s marketing efforts.

“During the boom years, you almost didn’t have to do anything because the homes were moving so fast,” she said. “Now, our members report lots of creative things for sellers.”

Those efforts include holding signs along roadways to promote open houses and an increased use of social media sites and YouTube videos to advertise homes on the market. Sunni Hammermeister of Sellstate Realty Systems Network, who signed on as agent for the Haismans last week, has even seen people offer cars and boats with the sale of their home.

As they continue to aggressively market the home on Persimmon Court, Hammermeister said it has a good chance of finding the right buyer. Haisman, who plans to create a second media release soon, also remains optimistic.

“Hopefully, these things will help us stand out,” she said of her PR efforts. “We’re trying to be positive in this economy and proactive and take action instead of just complaining about how horrible things are.”

Cypress nips Island Coast

11. September 2010 · Comments Off · Categories: Cars, News, Tech · Tags: , , , , , , , , , ,

While a torrential downpour might have made most of Cypress Lake’s offensive performance an ugly one, it was the few minutes before the rains that showed the Panthers’ true offensive quality.

Taking the initiative early and scoring first, the Panthers upset Island Coast 13-6 at Thomas Broomhead Memorial Stadium on Friday night. To Cypress coach Mike Thornton, that first scoring drive against a Division I-caliber defensive line made the night.

“The momentum for us was the first quarter,” Thornton said. “That was the best option drive that I’ve seen since I came here.”

In that drive, the Panthers (1-1) pushed the vaunted Gators defense almost the length of the field. Quarterback Jayron Kearse led the way with several short gains, ultimately scoring on a 4-yard run. Logan Franklin’s kick made it 7-0.

Cypress did not appear intimidated by the defensive line of Island Coast (1-1). Knowing that they couldn’t block it, they attacked and read it.

“I told them that this is the most physical offensive and defensive line that I’ve seen since I’ve been in Lee County,” Thornton said.

Those in attendance nervously watched as a severe thunderstorm approached from the east. As the wall of water finally hit the field, the game continued until the lightning drew too close to safely play in the second quarter. That led to a 65-minute lightning delay.

Players sat in the locker rooms, assistant coaches sat in the press box and spectators sat in their cars as the torrential downpour blasted through the area. But with the officials unavailable today, school authorities elected to wait it out.

When the skies finally cleared, the game turned ugly. Between both teams, there were five fumbles – four lost – before halftime alone. All told, there were 15 fumbles in the game.

One of those fumbles added to the Panthers’ lead.

Philipp Casimir picked up a loose ball on the 2-yard line and ran it in, making it 13-0.

The Gators did not get on the scoreboard until the fourth quarter. Technically, nobody got on the scoreboard since an afternoon storm had shorted it out.

After both sides traded some more fumbles, Island Coast started a drive in Cypress Lake territory. Delmarick Pender took a handoff around the right end and outran the defender to the pylon. The kick was blocked, keeping the game at 13-6.

After that, it was more slogging through muck and fumbling the ball. The conditions kept the offensive gains low, with Kearse tallying a game-high 67 yards.

Are Tanning Booths an Successful Replacement to Sunlight?

We use technology daily to augment and enhance our lives. From cell phones, microwaves, cars to smart fabrics and tanning booths. When indoor tanning very first appeared, quite a few questioned why an individual would need to pay for some thing they could get for totally free just by standing outside. Now look in the industry, it is big, and hundreds of thousands of persons get value out of it every single day. It does beg the question though, are tanning booths an powerful replacement for sunlight?

Sunlight is some thing we have in abundance in Florida. It is totally free, unlimited, readily available most days and you'll be able to get it anywhere. So why stay indoors and lock yourself in the cupboard to obtain the same effect? There can be a lot of talk about the downsides of tanning booths, but you will find also benefits too. Sunlight damages skin, we all know that, but it also contains radiation, very a bit of it. Most of us have heard of UVA and UVB, the two primary kinds of radiation emitted by the sun, as these are the two forms that affect our skin and turn it brown. The rays emitted by the sun can penetrate the skin and cause our DNA to mutate, which we call skin cancer. Whilst the hazards are also present in tanning booths, they're controlled.

The sunlight that hits our skin whilst sunbathing is dependent on a variety of things, for instance weather, cloud cover, atmospheric conditions and time of year. Although we can take reasonable precautions from the care of our skin, the actual dose we receive can fluctuate. We also spend far more time sunbathing than we do inside a tanning booth. Generally, sunbathing is part of a social activity which can extend our exposure without having our realizing it. Applying a tanning booth enables handle over all of this. The UVA and UVB is strictly controlled, constant and predictable. That permits you to handle how much exposure you get at any one time.

Tanning booths are also time-controlled, so exposure is limited to minutes rather than hours. You can find no pals inside a booth, no distractions to extend exposure and everything is done under strict handle. Though it might seem a little clinical, then end result is the key thing, and a healthy, even tan is achieved rapidly, and safely with the suitable use of a tanning booth.

Although you can find still hazards involved in utilizing tanning booths or beds, as long as those dangers are managed effectively and also the correct precautions taken, you ought to be fine. Staff ought to make you aware of appropriate skincare, offering the correct tanning lotion to suit the sort of bulb from the booth, and an useful aftercare lotion. Most tanning salons certify their staff so they ought to have at least a minimum amount of knowledge to assist you. Unless you might have pals who are dermatologists, that’s a lot more than you might have in the beach.
