Day Five - Another Long Day

Friday was another long day full of compliments and adoration of the work I brought to the show.   And occasionally I was able to get out to see other work a bit closer.  The exhibitor’s lounge again provided coffee and other food items to keep me all fluffy and chatty.

I have a corner booth that faces one of the cross aisles making it a huge distance from the corner booths on the other side of the cross aisle.  Apparently that chasm was detrimental to neighborly chat sessions.  I planted the first seed by making the trip to make contact.  Let’s see if it worked tomorrow.

Today produced a serious inquiry about the Hall Cabinet and discussions about pickup or delivery after the show.  That person said they would be back.  Someday I hope to develop the skill to solidify such an opportunity into a sale as I have no recollection of such an event ever going beyond that moment.

I brought the last three boxes, from the 2011 series, to this show.  There is only one left now, a beautiful Birdseye Maple box, rated A+ in my scheme of things.  I saved it for just the right show.
