I Need A Cheerleader


One thing that I have been finding being your own boss is this. There is rarely anyone there to cheer you. Too tell you that you are doing good or bad. Most all of your sucess and failures are all in your hands.

I have been talking alot with a couple of my subs and we have started to kinda cheer each other on. We are each others bartenders ( You know some that will listen to you whine and not complain to much). It seems to help keep me more focused on my business.

I don't know if this warrents input or what but I just thought I would through it out there.

Mark

Re: I Need A Cheerleader


Thanks for cheering me on.

I have this funny feeling though that you all would not look real good in the standard cheer leader outfit.

But thats ok I will take what I can get.

Re: I Need A Cheerleader


Usually it's the homeowner's that are cheering us on. Or the bankers we frequent. Sometimes it's our physical fitness trainers, or pilates instructors (both have great aural capabilities in letting us know we're the best). Our vendors give us their pom-poms when we need to present a superior product, or give us a cheer when we purchase a certain amount of material.
The Marine recruiters and select veterans are always honking their horns at our vans on the way to work.
And sometimes the local press kicks a nickel our way.

On the contrary, MArk; I have great legs (for a guy!)

One reason for the growth of franchises is exactly that. Someone in the rooting section.
Any way

Good Job, Mark!
