Its entirely possible that I am wrong, but just go with me for a minute.
I called the rep for Corky’s BBQ so many times that I think he blocked me. True.Story. I have never been blocked before and it is a new kind of rejection that feels weird. I’m not crying, and I’m not sad, so I think I have entered into the phase of; “I don’t care.” Or maybe its just I’m delusional. I thought and still think my boards would sell well on TV. Do you??? If you don’t, then don’t tell me. I always say the most intelligent person said this phrase, “Ignorance is bliss.” I have to keep trying.

Here I am with our “Bread” shaped boards in Walnut! |
In all of History of selling on TV cutting boards have never sold well. This is fact, and I want to change that. I just have this gut feeling, I just know…..(you know when you know), that I could sell my boards and wood products on QVC and people would LOVE THEM!!!
So I have a new idea, what if I try to sell “bread shaped” toast boards with someone selling a toaster? If toaster’s are sold on TV? I do not know but I am going to look that up now, and then propose it to my favorite buyer who hasn’t blocked me yet. 😉
My gut is telling me another thing, when someone tells me I can’t do something I always say, “watch.” I hate it when I have to prove people wrong….sometimes I prove them right but this time I want to be right.
So……. what to do next with the BBQ thing? I am not sure.
I do know that I am making a lot more custom cabinets and selling pre-fab cabinets to builders which is super exciting. I get to measure all the jobs and when we put the cabinets in, they fit! That’s a plus. So that’s my positive for today.
I am looking forward to finding out how, and when, and what, I will do next.
talk soon,
your custom cabinet girl
