Today for #MemberMonday we're featuring Annie Lewis! We recently caught up with Annie to get to know her and her business a little better! Here is what she had to say... Tell us a little known fact about eXp Realty. eXp Realty is a global cloud based firm. It was great to do training with them during Covid especially as they have an entire Cloud Based world with Avatars and auditoriums for training. Much more friendly than Zoom. It is also how I interact when I need assistance. I am a solo agent backed by an amazing team, literally at my fingertips. What do you love about Asheville and our business community? Asheville is truly one of the most friendly places I have ever lived. I chose Asheville for it's culture and support of the arts as well. I love the business community here because of the strong entrepreneurial spirit. I moved here around the same time as people were leaving big cities to work remotely so it is possible to encounter people with a vast array of experience. The support for success is real! There are so many great opportunities at one's fingertips with various programs for assistance. What’s the best part of being a chamber member? I joined the AVL Chamber during Covid, shortly after moving here. It was a great way to meet people and become engaged, before things opened up again. I've made friends, cultivated clients and helped other members grow their businesses. I am grateful to both give and receive support by being a member. As with any member organization, one gets out of it what they give to it! I'm happy to be a part of it! For more information about working Annie, visit https://bit.ly/3VJ7QA5!
