Sometimes the best mornings are the simple ones spent with someone you love, enjoying a little treat and discovering something local!
I recently enjoyed a morning out with Jocelyn, redeeming our latest LOLO gift at Edelweiss Village. And let me tell you, it was a win-win kind of morning! Not only did we get to enjoy our LOLO gift, but we also treated ourselves to a wonderful hot chocolate as part of the YYC Hot Chocolate Fest. ☕🍫
A little mother-daughter time, a delicious drink, and the chance to support local businesses? You really can't go wrong with that combination!
I love finding little reasons to get out and explore Calgary. Sometimes we get so caught up in our everyday routines that we forget how many wonderful local businesses and unique places are right here in our own backyard. Outings like this are a great reminder to slow down, enjoy the moment, and make memories along the way.
And when a free LOLO gift is part of the adventure, that's even sweeter!
What Is LOLO? Locals Supporting Locals! ❤️
If you've seen me sharing my LOLO adventures, you might be wondering what it's all about.
LOLO is a client appreciation program through CIR Realty that connects our clients with participating local businesses. The idea is simple: celebrate our clients while helping shine a spotlight on the amazing businesses that make our communities special.
Registered clients have the opportunity to receive a FREE gift or treat every month from a different participating local business!
It's a fun way to discover new favourites, try something different, and support local entrepreneurs. Whether it's a tasty treat, a little gift, or another fun surprise, there's something special about getting to experience what our local business community has to offer.
The LOLO gifting zones have also been divided into three areas to help connect clients with participating businesses in their region:
📍 North Calgary
📍 South Calgary
📍 Cochrane
These zones help organize the program and connect participants with businesses in their designated areas.
Why I Love Supporting Local
For me, real estate has always been about more than houses and paperwork. It's about people, relationships, and community.
I love being able to introduce clients to opportunities like LOLO because staying connected shouldn't end when a transaction is complete. Whether we're chatting about the market, sharing home tips, or enjoying a local treat, building relationships is what makes this business so rewarding.
And when I get to spend some quality time with Jocelyn while supporting local businesses? That's a bonus I won't complain about!
