I’m an Animal Lover Who Needed Help

Saturday, October 7th, 2023

I just love all the geese that fly around the woods in the neighborhood where my home is. I love their colors. I love the way they sound, too. I have never had the luck to live near them before. But I learned that they can also become a pest problem, as well. My neighbors and I discussed that I might need to get Canada geese control in NJ after the geese began attacking me at random times.

I do not want to hurt animals. And I never will. It is scary, though, to walk outside your home on a Saturday morning in your robe and slippers, and the geese come at you out of nowhere. I have to go outside each morning to get my newspaper delivery, and out of the 5 days I went out to get it last week, the birds came after me four times.

I decided to try to be sneaky and look out the window before I went outside. I would wait until I thought they were busy, and then I would rush outside. Of course, I made sure to be very quite so that I would not alert them. That worked two times. The other two times, they saw me and came after me immediately. Both times, I raced back inside again. This was not good for them or me.

The majority of these birds leave people alone. But in random situations, they become very territorial. I understand that fully. To them, I was on their property, not the other way around. They wanted me gone and did what they could to try to protect their territory. I called a place that could do something about it. They promised that they are very gentle and only relocated the birds. They did that for me and I can now go outside in peace.

My New Studio is Now Complete and Ready for Business

Saturday, October 7th, 2023

I have been into dancing ever since I was a toddler. Of course, my parents are the ones who put me into dance class back then. I had no idea so young that I would take to it so well, and neither did they. They started me out with ballet class, and I loved it from the start. Now, 30 years later, I have just purchased my own little dance studio. I had a mirror installer in Brooklyn come to put in the large expanse of mirror that covers two walls in two rooms.

After the mirrored walls were completed, it finally felt that my dream was real. I had been wanting a studio of my own for years, and even after I simply purchased the place, it seemed dream-like, rather than fact. When those mirrors were completed, I stood back and looked at them both, and then I began dancing in front of one of them. I did not stop for at least an hour. Then I slid to the floor and just looked around for awhile. Finally, it sunk in that this place was mine.

I immediately put ads in the newspaper to advertise my new place. I walked for hours passing out fliers to homes around the area with a first time customer coupon on the flier. If these two things did not work, I was not sure what I would do, but I would cross that bridge if it happened later. Surprisingly enough, I had 10 people call me that first week to say they were happy to have a dance business so close by because their kids had been begging them for classes. I told everyone to show up and sign up, and we would discuss the classes when they got here. All 10 people signed up, and even more people are calling for future classes.

We Teach How to Sell Our Product Through a Meeting Room Rental Facility

Saturday, October 7th, 2023

When I started my business of selling a product I designed, I did not know where the best place to sell it was. I was going to put it in stores, but the marketing costs were too high for my little fledgling business. I had a friend who told me he would take a box and try selling them where he works. He came home from work that night asking for another box. We had hit on something. Now we use a meeting room rental on a weekly basis to get more people involved with selling the product to people they know. Everyone makes a little bit of money.

We will buy back anything a person does not sell. That way no one ever gets stuck with product. Every person makes money because they buy it from us wholesale and sell it at retail price. No clubs, plans or pyramids. Just good old-fashioned product sales. But instead of it being offered in retail stores, we have regular people doing the selling. The product really does sell itself. My friend and I have a little training seminar we use to teach new people wanting to buy our product wholesale and sell it retail. We use a meeting room rental place that serves us well. People show up, get trained for free and start their own little side business. Being able to use a meeting room instead of space we own looks more professional. Plus, it is much cheaper to rent than to own an office or training facility!

Now it is just repeating what we started. More people get trained to sell and we earn more money. They earn too. No one walks away with less than what they had when they started. Each person may know a lot of buyers or just a few. It does not matter. Those who only know a few people sell enough to have a weekend of fun or to buy something they want. Others are branching out and selling enough to pay their bills. It is all about opportunity.
