Well Im in my store now. My dad and I spent two or three late nights working just to get me in. I still need to paint and get the yucky green off the walls. The photography shop that was in here had that diaper green. I had to move a wall and we just transformed it into a counter and it looks really good. I have some little things to do but for the most part it is done. I have hard wood floors and that sets it off. I want the image that when people come in they are not walking into a flea market with things just cluttered and have to walk over the top of it or around it to get to the counter. I made enough money the first week to pay my bills and get moved into the store. I have some advertising that I have done, the back window car decal and a big sign for the road, some custom shirts.
I have joined the chamber and i am getting involved more in my community like I have wanted to for a while now. I have already set up a booth at a career fair for the area schools. My booth was an old computer that I had taken apart and laid the parts on the table. This kids were amazed that "all those parts" fit in that case. LOL. I have been asked to set up a booth at a job fair and provide two computers so that applicants can go online and fill out job apps. I have been added to the advertising as a corporate sponsor.
lastly, I now have a website started and hopefully will be done by next week. The web address is: www.scrpoteau.com.
That is what is going on to date. I will post more as things develope. I have some other things that are in the works and will let you know as they progress.
until next time
Chief
