I may have a problem (3 Viewers)

Probably regret this but this was this weekend's garage festivities. Yes ..I know I'm a little out of tune with their guitar and yes I know we're not super stars but it keeps us entertained and yes I know I need to clean garage...that's next weekend's festivities. Little one was our camera man and 16 yr old on his drums

In HS I had a job trying to give away free dance lessons at Fred Aistaire dance studio
Called one number and jumped into my spiel and this guy was like ‘hold up hold up- what is this?’
Me ‘blahblahblah ‘
Him: ‘nah we don’t want that, but me and dad are in the garage playing “dust in the wind” you wanna hear that’?
- then he just put down the phone and started playing- pretty dang good

That was my best call with the Fred Aistaire dance studio

So how many lessons did you sell? Kind of a select target audience you're going for there. I'm guessing you got alot of "you're giving away what?" Haha

was giving them away - 3 free lessons if i remember correctly - i think it was the instructors' job to hard sell once they walked in the door
i do remember staying above quota - which i think was only one an hour
believe it or not, i did not pursue telemarketing in college and beyond

Dude, that is awesome. Your kids are going to have memories with their dad that last forever.
My mom and dad live all the way over in Fort Worth, TX, and with work and everything, it’s hard to see them more than twice a year. I’m 43 with my own two kids and miss my parents like crazy - I remember all the goofy stuff with my dad. Like the time we went fishing and caught a snapping turtle by accident. We were both horrified and fell out the canoe. Lmao. :smilielol:

Alot of what I do is inspired by my parents. My dad died in 05 and my mom in 06. They were both just 62. Like them I won't be able to leave a fortune for my kids or really anything hopefully...my dad always said he hoped his last check bounced haha. Like them what I will leave behind are memories and laughs. I miss my parents like crazy but some therapy for me is thinking of them when I'm spending time with the kids.
