IDEA MARKET (RED DEER, AB) | LOCAL SPOTLIGHT

Photobucket

As far as I can tell, the buzz about Idea Market has been building for a few years now. When I originally relocated back to Red Deer in 2008, I remember seeing the Idea Market vehicle around town. Immediately I was intrigued by the unique logo and very simple yet eye-catching design. After doing a...

It is really neat to read and see Idea Market from an outside eye, thank you for this. Oh and…you made Carson look skinny! Way to go Andrea!

Oh mom…

Thank you so much for the profile, Mike and Andrea! We were pumped to see the results and you totally delivered. Great work!

Carson IS a real business person! He helps people / community on a daily basis, whether he knows it or not :)

DOWNTOWN MARKET (WED 4-7) | RED DEER REAL ESTATE

Do you enjoy a nice summer morning stroll down to Red Deer’s own Farmer’s Market evey Saturday? Perhaps you enjoy going to pick up some locally produced goods to load your fridge for the week. Do you ever find yourself unable to make it to the market one week, or running a bit short on...

Thanks Tylor! We are always working Saturdays, and only ever go to the market for the food items, so it is a great alternative that fits into our schedule! Maybe we will see you down there? I’ll be the guy with my mits full of veggies.

Nice article, a true farmers market, and great for a mid-week stock-up. Stoked to head there tomorrow.

Some of you who have been following along may remember a post a while back about the 3/50 Project, that both Andrea and myself had become involved with in an effort to promote and support local businesses. Building off of this, I was pleased to see a more local initiative start up (the 3/50 Project...

Photobucket

Andrea and I were out for a walk yesterday and got into a discussion relating to business, and what plans we had to make some changes from how we operated our businesses last year. I had very good start-up year helping people either find the right home or sell their previous home, but I believe...

If I lived in Canada and you weren’t my brother, I’d totally pick you for my realtor. I mean, I would because you’re my brother, but even if you weren’t, I’d still totally pick you. You’ve got a good attitude, you’re focused on others than just yourself, and your posts actually make me smile, even though I live in Scandinavia and the majority of what you say doesn’t apply to anything in my life. You rock!

Great job Mike. #1 is very smart, we are offering a service by finding them a home and listening, not just saying here go to this website pick some crap out…..

Heidi - March 11, 2010 - 9:16 am

Mike…you rock!! Love your new plans for this year, those changes are all really positive and efficient. People who just coast along from year to year thinking they are making the world a better place by staying the same are dull. Anyhow, keep up the great work.

Hi Mike,

I just wanted to let you know I always come visit your site to see what’s new in Mike’s world. This week, Mike’s doing call’s from a tree, I dig it.

I also just wanted to let you know your a breath of fresh air in the real estate industry. We have not seen one other Realtor out there that interests us like you do. Your the type of Realtor we’d hire in a second. Keep it up.
