Leadership For Cris it goes without saying that good leadership is crucial to any successful business. But, what makes a good leader and how can someone develop himself or herself into a good leader? “The answer is that there are many factors that contribute to good leadership. And, whether someone is naturally a good leader or not, anyone can become a good leader,” states Cris. |

Success in Business To succeed in business Cris believes in the basic tenets of discipline and success. “It is a combination of knowledge, skills, attitude, hard work and some luck in being in the right place at the right time, knowing the right people. finding a need existing, or a market, which matches what you are trying to sell, choosing a good support network and hiring competent staff,” stated Cris. With that heard, this business leader reveals his key to success. “I provide my client a very personal service. Without compromising integrity, to maintain sufficient flexibility to allow me first to listen, then adapt to, and meet the specific needs of my clients. I have a long term business horizon, and believe in sure and steady growth by building personal relationships based on integrity, trust and recommendation.” Understanding the Industry In his industry, Cris makes sure that he keeps tabs on key developments and the market where he operates. “Georgia is a beautiful state with real estate in many types of cities and settings, and it offers gorgeous, expansive and historic properties. Luxuriance and value could be found with house values and home prices in world-famous cities such as Atlanta and historic Savannah stunning and quaint towns such as Woodstock. The state has a spectacular real estate market. Georgia real estate includes everything from stunning historic plantation homes and luxury estate houses, to cozy modern single-family homes and trendy condominiums and townhouses.” Cris expressed that youthful enthusiasm as he explains the great opportunities in his market. “Atlanta is the capital as well as Georgia's largest city. As a major economic center for the Southeast and the headquarters for a number of well-known companies, Atlanta has seen significant growth in recent years. While housing prices have risen with this growth, there are still many choices for first-time homebuyers in this market due to the rapid pace of new construction.” In the short term, Cris sees that Commercial real estate is moving closer to the people. No longer is a purview of larger-than-life egos and insatiable developers, the industry more focused now on the wants and needs of the average consumer: tenants, visitors and small investors. “The result is that more real-estate owners are looking to develop more attractive and functional public and commercial spaces. On the investment side, the once-fragmented and clubby industry that was once open strictly to professionals has become more open to all. Reams of information on real-estate companies, funds, property markets and investment opportunities are readily available. That new accessibility, coupled with many investors' concerns about getting burned again in the stock markets, has resulted in a renewed interest in tangible assets -- in bricks and mortar.” |

Starting a Business To those who would want to set up their own business, Cris thinks they should grab every opportunity that comes along the way. “They should FREE themselves and be their own BOSS. Get involve with PACCGA and exhaust all the benefits that entails with it,” says Cris. He cautions business starters to stick with the basics: have a product or service they believe-in, which is something that is unique and have the potential of growth. “Another key factor to be considered is that they must have personal discipline to pursue whatever it takes to make the business grow successfully,” says Cris. “Finally, maintain an excellent relationship with their clients and customers and vendors.” What Really Counts "To be successful, one should always be ready to stay focused on what counts. Be willing to go an extra mile of superb customer service since they are the life of their business.” (Real Estate Business Times) |
