The Power Of A Power Lunch With SFA

As a realtor who deals with mainly high end properties, THE POWER LUNCH is an important part of my business.













A power lunch consists of the perfect setting, sharing time, and visions with another person (or persons) who have a common goal or passion.

This particular power meeting was at the Ritz Carlton in Marina Del Rey California, located right on the Marina with amazing views... overlooking clear, calm waters and some of the most breathtaking yachts in the world!













The minute you drive up you feel like you've traveled across the oceans to Europe. The bell-men are impeccably dressed in uniform and cap. They greet me by name...which makes me feel, OH so, so special. The floral arrangements are always tasteful and fragrant. Oh, and just so you know, this is just ONE of my choices for my power breakfasts.
(more to come)














Lara Firestone and Mara Gourdine are the Business Development Team for SFA Designs; a Santa Barbara based interior design firm with locations in LA. At our power lunch, we were brainstorming on how to, play more off of each other, since their clients need properties... ahhhh...and my clients need assistance with fulfilling their dreams for their living environment.

So we felt that by us joining forces, it is giving our clients a more, FULL SERVICE approach to what we both do best. We've decided to organize a "WOMEN IN HOLLYWOOD" luncheon (Yes...you heard it hear first!). Some of our other decisions were for some of my celebrity clients (who are currently looking at some pretty substantial properties and would need their assistance). And after viewing a bachelor who just purchased his home the day before...he was definitely getting a business card from SFA.













But a quick clue for a successful power meeting is to pick a few places that you visit regularly...that offer the ambiance for the variety of clients you represent. It is pretty impressive if they (the staff) know your name and send special goodies to the table for you and your guests...make sure you tip them well also.

If you would like to experience some of the award winning designs of SFA please visit their website; which, by the way, is a true representation of the timeless style they create at sfadesigns.com. Share my blog with a friend...bye, bye for now! Or, until tomorrow.
