Went...well ok.
I packed up a little bag with all I have to offer. Which, granted, isn't a lot right now. But it's a start. I typed up a price sheet with a nicely done cover letter.
Drove my happy butt over there and met with the owners. I showed them everything, told them a little bit about me and what I was hoping to accomplish.
It ended with "I think we're interested, but let us think about it and we'll email you".
Needless to say, I'm not super excited about this. I hope it comes through. But I won't be surprised if it doesn't.
Looking back I realize there are things I could have done better. As some one mentioned to me, I should of had an order form with me. So if they were interested, they could have placed the order right then and there.
I should have had all my product. I felt sort of empty.
If anything, it was a learning experience.

My first meeting
Thursday, July 3, 2008
Things are in full swing!
Oh my! Things are really getting on their way. I've got an EIN. I filed for my sales tax authority form. I've got product. I have the phone company coming on Monday to install my business phone line.
And...
I have my first business meeting on Tuesday. I'm so excited. I've found a cute little store that might be interested in carrying my baskets.
And..
I've got another place lined up that I need to call and make an appointment to meet with the owner. This is a pilates/yoga place that also might be interested.
And..
When the phone line is all set I can then order my business cards.
Moving right along.......
