I wish I could give away some details, but in all my life I have never run into such a sales call dilemma. A twist to a sales call that no one could have predicted or would have thought to predict about the buyer. (Space & Rocket Center)
In business you prepare for everything you think! We came up with at least 12 new products, I know they would love! I haven't figured out how to write about this yet.
On my way back up to Huntsville on Wednesday to hopefully create more customers for Jack & Jill.
This should be interesting. Unfortunately because of the time delay this article will not come out until April.
Maybe after a drink or two I might give away some details at the Beach Party :-&

Tom,
We're not above plying you with alcohol, to gain some inside info. (devil)
This is promising to be an interesting series of articles.
I also notice you'll be joining the entire NBM show circuit this year, as a speaker. One more good reason for people to attend. :-)

Tom "Buzz" Bernard's article, Jack and Jill Build a Laser Business: Part Two appears in this month's (March 2007) A&E magazine.
Buzz's goal, is to help a newbie laser owner and his wife, create a product line and pay off their equipment as soon as possible.
You don't have to be a newbie to appreciate that advice. :-)
Also, be sure to visit Buzz, as he becomes a speaker on this year's NBM trade show circuit.
First stop = Ft. Worth, TX (May 3-5, 2007)

My sister Diana will be there. Although she doesn't own a single piece of equipment, she loves that show, and enjoys staying on top of the current marking technologies for our promotional product clients.

Quite prudent on your wife's part I might say (devil)

David,
That's one of the reasons to stay on top of the technology. Even if we don't own the equipment, being able to speak intelligently about the various processes, or have a working knowledge, prevents us from having to say those 9 deadly words:
I'll have to get back to you on that.
It makes a difference, in the confidence of our customers.EDITED: 10 Mar 2007 by DGL

Tom "Buzz" Bernard's series, "Jack and Jill Create A Laser Business: Part Three" appears in the April 2007 issue of A&E.
Did Jack and Jill fall down the hill, in an attempt to impress a corporate buyer, by not putting their best foot forward?
If so, can they recover?
Quality, Quality, Quality and More Quality, is the essence of the article. :-)
