Message from the President

Dear Members,


I’m looking forward to serving as your 2023 President. My year as President is not about me, but rather it’s about YOU, our members. I took an oath to safeguard your best interests and that’s what I intend to do. 

 

I’m here to lead and serve everybody. By doing that, I hope to encourage all of you to do the same. Let's create a domino effect of serving each other and our communities; to keep learning and improving, not only ourselves and our own businesses, but our Association and our industry. 

 

There has never been a time when, as professionals, we have had the reach, the resources, the knowledge, and the expertise to make a difference in our industry. South Shore Realtors® is offering you benefits and opportunities in 2023 to advocate for our industry and homeownership, to volunteer in our communities, and professional educational and networking resources to become the best industry professional in the business. 

 

The Association will be instituting technology upgrades this year to improve your member experience. A new Association website will be launched next month that will have a single sign on to make it easier to navigate from the website to the current online Community (The Launch) where members seek answers to their most pressing questions and build relationships with one another. We're renaming The Launch to "Online Forum" and we're switching email systems to improve the way we deliver Association communications.

 

It’s an exciting time to be a member of South Shore Realtors®! I encourage you to take advantage of the benefits provided to you on the local, state and national level and to check the Association’s calendar frequently, so you don’t miss opportunities.

 

I’m always here for you if you have any questions about your Association. Contact me at [email protected] – and put “Message to President” in the subject line and I'll be sure to get back to you.

 

Sincerely,

 

Jennifer Jule

2023 President
