"Be seen"

Be seen. That is my goal for 2009. I worked erratically and frantically in 2008, and though it paid off I am looking at being much more precise and intentional this year. They cant buy your precious gifts if they cant see them. So that's what I am doing. In the last month I have added my to my locations Sahara salon in (Rockridge) Oakland, and Most recently the Nail Mill in Pleasanton. The owner has been very gracious enough to allow me to set up a cabinet and show some items in her nail salon. So on the evening of December 3o, my husband and I took in 30 pieces ranging from $20 to $115.

Saturday, January 3, I get a call from a wonderful woman at the salon who is quite taken with my pieces. We talk a few times that morning on a range of items, mainly regarding taxes, and how she loves my pieces, if she can take all the bags I have out and so forth. One hour later and 3 minutes later I negotiate a $90 discount I manage to make a $575 sale.
Fluke or not I am a definate believer, Be seen.
