Some of the agents in my brokerage are taking a 3-day workshop on becoming better at marketing our businesses. It’s geared for real estate agents, but everything I’ve heard so far is good for any business owner to learn, and will be helpful if put into action. The first day was mostly motivational talk, but the main thing I took away from it was the importance to differentiate and stand out.
This is so important, not just for real estate agents, but anyone trying to get anywhere in any field.
The concept is the main reason I am using Ozark pigments in my art – the colors, and the fact that I make them from local sources, are the thing that helps me differentiate and stand out from other artists painting the same sorts of things that I paint.
My nature connection applies to both my art AND my real estate business. Sharing this relationship is a way to differentiate and stand out.
My favorite types of properties are those with a healthy dose of nature. While I’m happy to help anyone find any kind of property, it’s most satisfying to me personally, when there are forests, creeks, gardens, and other means for self-sufficiency on the land to nurture the buyer long after the paperwork is signed.
An efficient home geared for survival during hard times with supportive surrounding land features is the pinnacle of delight to me. This is the rarest of the rare finds when it comes to the types of real estate that excites me. When I can help a buyer find something like that, it’s doubly satisfying.
Anyway, it’s time for today’s session of Zoom workshop to begin soon, and I need to go log in. I am hoping this helps me figure out how to apply these observations to everything I want to achieve with my real estate, art, and when I can get myself back into the groove, my writing.
I hope you’re having a great day today! I’ll be watching the snow fall through the windows and putting my brain in gear while staying warm in my office.

I’m a naturalist, herbalist, real estate agent & artist. Sometimes, I also write things. I began using local pigments to paint scenes from nature in the Ozarks in 2018. Medicinal herbs have been a passion of mine since the early 1990’s, and I studied with Amelia Plant to earn my Traditional Herbalism certificate.
Would you love to have a place of your own out here in the rural Ozarks? I’m also a real estate agent with Montgomery Whiteley Realty, under my real name Roxann Riedel. I have a separate website for that at WildOzarkLand.com.
For pretty much everything else that I do online, I go by Madison Woods, a pen name I adopted when I first began writing and then later with my art.
You can see all of my art at the home page: www.WildOzark.com, and my online shop is at shop.WildOzark.com.
I’m available for presentations and workshops, and occasionally I host field trips to identify plants, gather pigment rocks, and make paints here on our property in Madison county, Arkansas.
