Help-U-Sell Options Unlimited Marches in Labor Day Parade

An eight-foot Help-U-Sell Real Estate banner led the Army of Red.

Help-U-Sell Options Unlimited‘s broker/owners Brenda and Robert Fischer love giving back to their community, and one of their favorite traditions is to march in the annual Terre Haute Labor Day parade. One of 48 entrants in the parade, the Fischers’ “Army of Red” consisted of more than 40 people all dressed in red Help-U-Sell Real Estate T-shirts. Family, friends, and past clients all handed out more than 2,500 informational cards explaining how Help-U-Sell Options Unlimited helps sellers save money. Two red trucks and five wagons/strollers with Help-U-Sell Real Estate signs accompanied the walkers, who carried an eight-foot banner.

Help-U-Sell Options Unlimited's 'Army of Red,' made up of staff, family, and past clients, marched in the Terre Haute Labor Day parade earlier this month.

“It was a lot of fun,” says Brenda Fischer. “We handed out over 6,600 pieces of candy.” The Labor Day parade is a perfect fit for Help-U-Sell Options Unlimited because “We want to support the ‘Labor Force’ and to give them an alternative to the ‘normal’ 6 to 9 percent real estate commission, in order for them to sell their homes,” she says.

The Army of Red included enthusiastic kids and 'future Help-U-Sell brokers.'
