Multifamily #Trust30 – Divinity
Day 8 of the #Trust30 challenge hits us with The Divine Idea
Imitation is Suicide. Insist on yourself; never imitate. – Ralph Waldo Emerson
Write down in which areas of your life you have to overcome these suicidal tendencies of imitation…
(Author: Fabian Kruse)
Let me start by saying this is a tough one for me as I believe in and have utilized the highest form of flattery in the past; that is, borrowing multifamily business and marketing concepts and adding a twist or two to make it my own. I am certain that I have employed a few former employer concepts at my current place of business.
Multifamily Blog
To speak to the point of today’s prompt. What are those area of my life? I would say the multifamily space leads the way. I have the tagline on my blog; Out to put a dent in the multifamily universe and I believe that will come in the way of insisting on myself as suggested above. I like to think we did as much back in 2006 or 2007 when we created the Portland Rocks Newsletter Blog while working for EQR. After a few platform changes and copy amendments we settled in and went for it. The team went on to win an inagural award for, in part, being the most innovative group in the bunch. Blogging today, while not mainstream, is certainly more prevelant that it ever has been. And, it will only continue to get more exciting. We like to think we were part of the catalyst that got the party started.
Today, we are constantly working on identifying new and exciting ways to enhance our organization through the use of exciting new technologies. And, look forward to continue to flatter and uniquely innovate in the space.
What about you?
