We had the good fortune of connecting with Paula Merriman and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Paula, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
To have some flexibility in my schedule. I can work from home and also not be at a desk all day. Like meeting people

What should our readers know about your business?
I’m a realtor. I’m always excited when I find the right home for my clients and help with the sell of their home and they are satisfied.
There are always challenges in real estate. Some challenges have been co-vid, the economy, affordability, housing, etc Since buying and selling home is one of the biggest steps in your life, it can be very stressful.. I want to help take the stress off of my clients.so my brand is Put The Weight On Me. I also am the TheGlassesRealtor
Trust and Reliability are 2 qualities I offer my clients. I also negoitiate the best I can for my clients.
One Lesson I learned is time management.. Their schedules are all different, and I want to be avaialble for my clients,
It can be a lot to manage at times. I’m proud that I’ve worked hard to be the #1 agent for my broker’s agency for 2 years

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
My clients all have different wants and needs and I’m always learning from them.and they are what keep me in buisness.

But the person who has given me the most guidance in this buisness as a mentor is my broker Anita Barham
