Above & Beyond Creative

Do you hear what I hear? ?

What's your love language? We show/give love best via Acts of Service (of course) and we receive love best via Words of Affirmation! Speaking of Words of Affirmation, I tear up a little every time a client leaves little love notes on social media. Coming from a property management background where the work is, quite frankly, "thankless" (let's be real, no one is calling their landlord saying 'hey thanks for keeping the lights on'...), it warms my heart seeing and hearing the joy people exude at one of my events. It's what fuels my creative fire! "Thank you SO much for helping execute my vision and keep the party on track all night long! I will never throw a party without calling you! I was able to enjoy a party for the first time ever! I can't thank you enough!" - Jenn Y. (private event client) "You make us better." - Miranda C. (corporate event client) "Special thanks to [Meredith] for the organization of the event, adding a ton of value to the experience." - Jorvic V. (corporate event client) "Above and beyond! You truly went above and beyond to make my daughter's birthday so special. Wow!" - Amy L. (private event client) "We couldn't have done it without you!" - Kathryn B. (corporate consulting client) #tootyourownhorn #lovelanguage #saythankyou #propertymanagement #tenantrelations #houstoncre #tobyconsultant

Pssst....What's a better way to show your client / owner how awesome your team is at managing and operating their asset than winning TOBY!? What is TOBY? The Outstanding Building of the Year - yes! Time to Organize Binders and Yonder - also yes? Let me break it down for you... TOBY is THE most prestigious award in commercial real estate, showcasing excellence in management and operations that a property can achieve. The awards happen every year, and there are 3 different levels of achievement - local, regional and international. There are also a variety of different categories you can apply to (i.e. Historic, by Square Footage, Medical Office Building, Life Science, Renovated, Earth, Corporate, and more...). You apply through BOMA, pay a small fee and start to build your portfolio. Everything is submitted online - no more bulky binders, late night courier visits, or expedited shipping costs ( not to mention #sustainability ) - and your local BOMA chapter is there every step of the way as a sounding board for any questions you may have as you submit your portfolio. Hey Houston! Did you know...Houston Building Owners and Managers Association (Houston BOMA) provides mentors at no cost to review your completed portfolio, even act as mock judges to help you prep for your building tour? That's right! Did you also know Above & Beyond Creative offers TOBY consulting services to be with you from day one of paying your application fee to building a portfolio from scratch, to proof reading, to outlining your building tour and beyond! TOBY applications are being accepted NOW, so reach out to your local BOMA rep and start your process for entering TOBY 2024-2025. Let's throw a party! Let's do TOBY!
