BIGG Tip – Slow Down to Think Fast

Before driving into your next task, ask these questions: (1) What do you want to achieve? Is this consistent with your overall goals? (2) Is the task still necessary? If so, is there a better way to do it? (3) Can technology speed it up? For example, can you automate any or all of it? Before you start a task, zero in on how to mark it “Done” faster. It leads to BIGG success! Get more tips from BIGG Success here.

Community Tours- We can help with your Professional Recruitment and/or Short- or Long-Term Rental Needs – Vermilion Advantage can help our members with professional recruitment by taking your new employees or employment candidates on a (free) Community Tour. We can also help your current or new employees with rental referrals – we keep a word-of-mouth list of available home and apartment rentals, also including some furnished short-term corporate rentals, that the public may not be aware of through other channels. In addition, we have some lovely extended-stay hotel suite options. And, if you have professional rental properties coming available, make sure Nicole has your property on her list! Questions? Call Nicole at 217-442-6201 or email her at nvanhyfte@vermilionadvantage.com.
