A word of warning
and asking for help...
I told a friend
today about my order and he seemed very interested in the differences
between Byard's prices and the Swedish standard prices. I wanted to get Byard
new costumers so I also told him about the 5% VFB discount... which in
turn lead to the need to lure him in here. So I started a closer
explanation of what VFB was... and naturally also the benefits of only this
mailing list. He seemed very interested and I have to say that you would have
felt very good if you had heard me describing what kind of people you all
are. I sure didn't save much! I even tried to give him the impression that
Don was a sane person. (With a fact like that, try to imagine how I painted the
picture of the rest of you... the ACTUALLY sane ones.) I think Don will be
helpful in this project too. I have told him all about this endless ocean of
skill and experience... and I think he will believe some of it when he gets home
today and looks up www.fantasyflies.com. (I was also
thorough in making him understand how to use the VFB pattern database... so
he can see some more.)
My main purpose here
is to give Byard some new costumers. A growing Swedish infection in VFB is
just an unfortunate side effect ;o). To a Swede, Byard's prices are great
already... but the fact is that with 5% discount, it will be even easier.
In my own head, there is no need to "push" a word like this. To a Swede there
can be REAL money saved... or more material bought. Either way it's a
self-spreading advice...
But first of all,
luring them into VFB is a good way to start... and here you can help
me.
I'm going to post a
message later asking about 'Home made dubbing'... and I need as much
expert help with it as I can get. The more detailed/different advices I get the
better. Tomorrow I will show him in the VFB Mail-Archive, this question of mine
and how much help I got with it... so he can see it with his own eyes. (This
will be a thing I can use later on as well, with a couple of other
friends.)
Is this a thing you
can help me with?
