BIGG Tip –How to Push Yourself to Grow

We humans resist growth. How can you embrace it? (1) Find a mentor. They will push you and encourage you. (2) Don’t push too hard. Full speed ahead is great, but pace – so you don’t get ahead of yourself. (3) Set small goals. You achieve BIGG goals by achieving little ones. Small victories give you the confidence to grow. And that 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.
