Every once in a while a customer will come by who isn't interested in kicking tires. This was husband and wife team starting up a new RV Park. They had done their research. On their Iphone they had saved a photo made in Colorado. It was extremely attractive so that was the bench-mark.
I emailed them the artwork below. Within one day I had a nice deposit. I'm still thinking it's the artwork people spark to. It's not only the quality of the finished product although that's also important too. But, you get folks going in the right direction with the illustration.
Not everyone has those skills but there's lots of guys who do and they are looking for work. I hire out as much labor as I can. As I've said previously, I no longer do any routing. The ears and lungs are have moved on to quieter, cleaner work. Nothing wrong with routing but at my age it's isn't an option.
I still enjoy making money.
