Well, last Friday night found me at the first home game for the local high school football team. I was standing at the edge of the field leaning up against the chain link fence that encircles the field and I was BS'ing with the county sheriff and the local chief of police. A guy walked up to me and asked if I was Will. I said yes and then he asked if I did ranch improvements. Again I said yes. A few moments later I was making arrangements to go see some work he wanted done. At the moment I told that guy that I would see him on the appointed day and time, the local high school scored a touchdown!! :cool2:

Where are some of the strange (and maybe not so strange places) you have met potential customers?

PS - The local high school team won the game 34-7. :weightlifter: :cool2:

I had a guy read the back of my shirt in a restroom and ask me about what kind of work I do,I told him brush cutting and dirt work and he asked if I could come look at it.I got the job and it was over a 2K mowing job.

My name is written on enough washroom stalls, I don't need advertising.

Ron writing your name in the barn for the cows does not count!!!
I thought is was a little creepy,when that guy started talking to me in the restroom but I was only at the stink.
