Hi everybody,
Has any one else gotten the "This is my lunch time and I still have to pick it up so let's hurry.." line. I just had a somewhat fussy customer tell me this and plunk down a wedding portrait and limited edition lithograph. and she wanted to be out in 10 minutes. At 9:55 into my time with the portrait design looking great she said she would come back maybe tomorrow. Now we all know that the majority of "I'll be back"ers aren't coming back or aren't satisifed. As a last minute ploy to guilt her into coming back I gave her a new plastic sleeve to carry the portrait in so it wouldn't get damaged (she did not want to leave the art with me...not looking good is it)I thought at most it would get her back ... at the least I'm out a sleeve.
The thing that is driving me crazy is that she is the first person to leave my shop with her artwork unframed. In a new shop that is slow, this is REALLY bothering me.
I don't really have a question but I thought maybe some of you know what I'm talking about.
Well Happy Turkey day all, Bob
