For Coast & Country Sales, August was a month of growth, celebration and community spirit! This month has been filled with exciting milestones, from new team members joining our dynamic workforce to recognition for outstanding achievements and heartfelt volunteering efforts.
We’ve seen our team come together to make a meaningful impact – whether through giving back to local communities or earning well-deserved accolades. In this edition, we’re proud to share these moments of growth, success, and community spirit as we continue to move forward with passion and purpose.
Let’s dive into what made August 2024 a standout month at Coast & Country Sales!
Women’s Month
On 9th August 2024, Coast & Country Sales celebrated National Women’s Day by taking a moment to honour the incredible women who shape our industry, our communities, and our Coast & Country family.
“Happy Women’s Day to our team of ladies who exemplify strength, grace and determination. You are an inspiration to all!”.
Welcome to the Team
We’re excited to welcome a dynamic new addition to the Coast & Country Sales family—Shane Daniels, our new Unit Manager! At Coast & Country Sales, our team is our greatest asset, and we’re eager to see the positive impact Shane will bring. Let’s give him a warm welcome as he embarks on this exciting journey with us!
In more wonderful news, we’re thrilled to announce that Clive Ludick and his wife welcomed a beautiful baby girl on 12 August 2024 – a new CCS baby! Congratulations to the Ludick family on this joyful occasion!
Cluster Meetings
At Coast & Country Sales, our monthly cluster meetings are a vital part of fostering collaboration and communication across the team.
These gatherings offer an opportunity for team members to come together, share insights, and discuss key performance updates. It’s a time for open dialogue, where everyone can contribute ideas, address challenges, and align on goals for the upcoming month.
By connecting regularly, we ensure that each cluster remains focused, motivated, and ready to achieve success, while strengthening the sense of teamwork and support that defines our culture.
Volunteering At Bridges Retreat Centre
Coast & Country Sales continues to volunteer and serve at Bridges Retreat Centre. Fidelia Petersen shares some heartwarming feedback from our last visit.
“What a pleasure it always is to be a part of this wonderful initiative. The interactions with the kids and the facilitators are always fulfilling. The coaches are supportive and enthusiastic, and act as great role models to the kids visiting.
As a team, we had a fantastic time volunteering at Bridges! The Bridges team is always welcoming and to participate in the programs with the kids was very rewarding. We look forward to volunteering again in the near future.”

Celebrating and acknowledging outstanding contributions is a cornerstone of our company culture at Coast & Country Sales. Our awards shine a spotlight on the dedication, hard work, and excellence of our team, and we’re excited to introduce the latest recipients who have truly gone above and beyond.
HRT PACT Acknowledgement Awards
Michaela Stevens
We extend our heartfelt gratitude to Micheala Stevens, who has shown that she is willing to put in the work to improve on her development areas. She understands she has more work to do, I would like to recognize her for her efforts thus far. Further to that she is a team player and helps everywhere she can to ensure the team succeeds and does not miss a deadline especially when we are a man down.
Angelique Petersen
We would also like to acknowledge Angelique Petersen, who has been a great asset to the HR department & business as a whole since she started at CCS. She is always willing to lend a helping hand, always willing to listen, and always ready to upskill us in any way she possibly could. Her work ethic and positive attitude (even when she is processing salaries) is truly an inspiration to us all.
