CULLIGAN REAL ESTATE • 33 MAIN ST., SEAFORTH • 519-600-1577 Sherry McLaughlin I have been enjoying selling Real Estate for over 5 years along side Maureen Wildfong in the Seaforth and surrounding area. Being a real estate agent presents itself with many rewarding challenges that require determination and having the ability to understand that every client is different and each one of them requires personal individual assistance and is not as easy as showing someone 3 houses and having them pick one in 30 minutes as some popular reality shows have us believe. I pride myself in providing loyal, devoted, steadfast, honest, straight forward, consciousness service to all my clients and comprehension of the ever changing real estate markets. I take my responsibility and commitment to each client very seriously and consider it an honour to be a part of what is quite often the biggest financial purchase people will make. There is nothing more personally fulfilling and gratifying then being a part of the unforgettable moments when I witness my clients experience their individual goals and dreams and am so thankful to be a part of it.l believe success in ones career has nothing to do with the amount of money we make and has everything to do with choosing a career that you love and believe in. CULLIGAN REAL ESTATE • 33 MAIN ST., SEAFORTH • 519-600-1577 Betty & Danielle Small Consignment clothing, toys and used furniture sales just seem to work in Historic downtown Seaforth, but only because the owners Betty and Danielle Small are constantly monitoring current trends. Buying furniture for resale is always risky, as no one really knows if it will sell. The mother and daughter team is always on the look out for quality used furniture, during business hours as well as after hours, on the internet, classifieds and facebook. They are kept busy in the store with customers and pricing the ever changing merchanise. Over 180 consignment items arrive weekly and other stock is donated to charity monthly. They operate a facebook page and keep it current with pictures of "new" items, and answer questions and comments as they are asked. "Having two of us as owners helps if time off is needed". They just added a baby to the mix, so Danielle was able to take some needed time off and Betty loves to go to auctions and estate sales for new inventory. Please drop by and see our store we will always there to assist you. SALLY'S CLOSET • 57 MAIN ST., SEAFORTH Janet Haak 519-527-0550 Nineteen years ago my husband John and I became the proud owners of Janet's Country Donut Cafe. With a young family and husband working full time as a miner, I had my work cut out for me. Early out of highschool I got a job in the food service and really enjoyed the work and the people. After getting married and having three children I decided to stay home and raise them, while driving school bus for five years.Once all the kids were in school I once again worked in the food service, and that's when this place was up for sale, put an offer in and everything fell right into place. We became the owners of Janet's Country Donut Cafe. It's been a lot of hard work, long hours and a learning experience for sure, but I have enjoyed it. Our business has been very successful thanks to all my local customers whom I'm thankful for and a good staff makes a huge difference. We were able to expand and renovate in 2006 which let me add a lot more hot meals to our menu. We are now serving supper at night till 6:30 pm. I'm not sure how much longer I will be doing this as I have put it up for sale. I now feel I would like to spend some leisure time with my husband, kids and grandchildren, slow down somewhat and pickup some old hobbies that I enjoy.
