Hi Deborah-

Thanks so much for the call – I’d call you back but I’ve kind of lost my voice between coughing spells! Would love to talk to you more and get to know you. A large portion of work I get comes from realtors who have clients that need some home transition assistance so I’d like to follow up with you on that.

Hopefully, I’ll be normal next week and will give you a call back. You are on my list. I am very interested to hear your ideas.

Best to you

Christy

Hi Christy,

I am really glad you stopped by to let me know about your company (NextStep Transition http://www.nextsteptransitions.com/ ), and the others. That was very fair and generous of you to list them as well.

I really was surprised that I could not find any specialty movers in Seattle, it seems like such a valuable service.

I am going to contact you about how you might improve your online visibility.

Thank you for letting us know Christy!

Hi- found your blog and wanted to comment on the lack of Move Managers in Seattle. There are actually a number of us in Seattle. NextStep Transitions, Assisted Transitions, Moving Forward, Segue, Eliminate Chaos, too name a few. Last time I checked there were 9 of us that belonged to the National Association of Senior Managers (NASMM) I come from a Transportation background where I manager moving companies and then started NextStep over 2 years ago. Because its such a new industry people don’t know how to google us very well yet because they don’t know we are here. So we spend many hours with our web designers and SEO people trying to figure out how best to get our message out.

I work with anyone that is moving; seniors to retirement, boomers to condo’s, busy families and relocating execs.

Thank you for your blog – lets hope people start to discover us.
