We invite you to "Fuel Up" this Friday!



It's not an easy job to be out marketing in the community. Sometimes, the stress of meeting quotas, or keeping vacancy low in retirement communities, or bringing in leads, or keeping sales high can be draining!

The SASH Team would like to create a place where marketers can come and refresh, share ideas, get energized, and get "fueled up" for their work.

Bring your own breakfast, buy one inside Top Foods, or munch on some of the treats that we'll provide. Come anytime and leave anytime!

Our goal is that "Fuel Up" will be a place where marketers can relax, put aside the elevator pitches for a while, and get fired up about serving seniors and surviving in this economy.
Bring a friend! Smiles and breakfast treats will be freely given. We hope to see you there!











SASH purchases seniors' homes in private sales so the seniors and their families can skip all the stress and unknowns of selling on the regular market.

We specialize in private, custom-designed, and easy home sales for seniors, with white-glove client care each step of the way.

SASH provides packing and moving assistance, senior-focused closing dates, and much more!
