Gab... Double ditto on pitching stuff. Sure, I might be able to make money on a snip of this or that, but by the time I un-earth it, it would have been well worth my time to start fresh. Purging has a wonderful theraputic effect. Working amidst clutter is such an energy drain...

That's what duct tape is for. Sure, it's a little tough on the hair, but after two or three times, there's none left to pull out.

john 1, your avatar looks like Frank Fellers...isn't that some sort of copyright or image infringement?

I bet it was the ham hors d'oeuvres. But seriously, the moral of the story: Know your customer.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say you're "dancing on eggshells" here. Not sure you'll get much helpful assistance due to the nature of your request.

Zeth, I like the elements on the rooftop. Looks like you've got your work cut out for you.

A lot of older stones are that way. I think they anticipated adding more text later.

I see a lot of headstones over the course of a year's time and I usually wonder about the people they represent. Typically, I see the usual laser etching of a car, a dog or perhaps even the deceased's business. It surely isn't like the days of long ago. Anyway, I saw this one last...

I was just at the www.adobe.com website and they're offering Photoshop for $100 off regular price of $699, and $50 off upgrade price of $199. Not too bad a deal.

It all starts with an eye for design. Upon seeing the existing signage, you should already have the "wheels turning" as to how you would like to improve the client's image. Beyond that, you need to understand the client's goals for their sign...business identity, direction and or...

Jill...looks like majorly high cholesterol font. I browsed LHF this morning to see if they were offering any specials, looks like they're sticking to their guns...but they do have some good values on the font bundles.

Sure....why not?

No standing in line, just a warm cozy shopping experience. Ahhh...the comfort. So...what did you buy online today? I "splurged" and got Suitcase Fusion 3 (font manager)...something I've had my eye on for the last year or so. Extensis didn't have any specials, but that's ok. JB

I have a sick kind of feeling that all software manufacturers are going to go the subscription route...and perhaps even cloud based. We'll have zero control then.

Still sole prop. looking to switch over to a LLC in the near future. Even then, I'll still retain my responsibility for finances.

Welcome from the "cuff of the mitten". If you're looking for a good place to learn, you've certainly found it. The diverse range of topics is enough to keep you busy reading for months. JB

What Techman says about "pain " is true, but it's not necessarily the literal sense unless you're selling Advil or Tylenol. Pain in this instance refers to a customer's "need", and in some cases "wants". Good marketing will cater to these two basic concepts. Excellent marketing will...

In regard to competition: Basic economics says that substitutions are the same thing as competition. If the customer can find a substitute for any product you sell or any service you offer, you then have competition. I would say that applies to all of us in one way or another. How...

Wow, I didn't realize how involved this post was. I made it through the first page and am still working my way through. While I can't add a whole lot to what's already been said, I'm with Jill way back on page one: find a temporary job to keep the wolves away...even if it only covers a...

Obviously a Freudian slip, I presume? BTW a "Brazier" is a wood or coal-fired box used for grilling. Brassiere is the word in question.
