Serious consideration

is what I'm giving to the idea of doing a vlog. Probably something once a week, maybe shoot on Monday and then edit at night, post it Tuesday morning.

VLOG includes:

1) Upcoming sales.
2) Video shots of product.
3) Events happening in the store that week.
4) Special packages that I put together.

Every once and awhile (monthly?) I could have someone else 'featured,' and have them talk a bit.

Later features could include:
1) Coolest new feature.
2) "Did you know: " tip
3) Coolest old feature.
4) .... any ideas, reader(s)?

I wonder if

doing vlogs in the mornings would help me drum up some clients?

I still can't believe...

its not butter!

I officially start my new position on Monday. Things I'm liking already:

1) Vann's views its "customers" as clients. To me, this means that the process of selling/buying is much more involved, much more personal... much more better.
Than even butter!
We work more on a relationship than "Sell this item to that person and move on." As a relational guy, I'm looking forward to developing a client base. :)

2) Our products rock. Seriously! I've been installing them now for the last month and we sell good stuff. Good quality, good prices, good support. (And don't forget to pick up a warranty, its well worth it)

3) I'm going to get to learn a LOT of stuff!!!

I am now

a "Product Advisor" for Vann's in Bozeman. Well, sort of. I start next Monday, this week I'll be finishing up deliveries until the store manager gets back into town from some meetings that he's at. Basically this means that if you're looking for TVs, Audio gear, Ranges, Dishwashers, Clothes Washers / Dryers, Wine Coolers, Speakers, GPSs... and the list goes on... wait til next week and come visit the Bozeman store! Look me up. Chances are I'll be posting any deals we have on here and on my twitter : rbedfordpro. Also, if you're looking for something particular let me know and I'll be more than happy to see what we've got and what I can do for ya!

And on a side note, my iPhone just got washed. From everything I've read and experienced with electronics, this is not a good way to clean the phone, so I may have just broken it permanently... which really really bites, as I've gotten quite attached to it.

Off to a Dave Ramsey course... ciao.

Trying out for...

a sales position at Vann's in Bozeman. If I get it, everyone that I know (and many I don't) need to buy all their appliances / tvs / audio-systems through me! m'kay?? Oh, and don't forget to get your cables and warranties, too. If I don't get the position, I'll stay delivery, but keep working on trying to get video work.. maybe I could get more training and thereby convince Vann's to pay me more money!

I'm actually working on a script right now for a "Delivery Expectations" type video for Vann's. I have the script completed, but it needs some editing in the audio side of things. (Go Go Gadget AwesomeWife!) I've presented it to my superiors and they're interested, but we're negotiating a price / compensation for it all to happen.

SG:1 rocks face.
Chipping up concrete in a warehouse isn't fun.
Almost done fixing the ceiling in the bathroom!
aaaaand i'm done.

If only

I had good things to say, like my wife... then everyone would read my blog!

Working

... lots of hours, mostly unscheduled! My 8 to 4 schedule hardly ever happens :( It keeps turning into 8 till 7. Makes for some long days. I suppose the checks will be good, but for the most part it makes it impossible to plan anything. I've been late for a couple dinners, missed putting Blake to bed once, and almost made Addie miss a night out with some friends just tonight.

Video work has been sparce, paid work non-existant! I got to work on some stuff for a friend who's an inventor. I can't tell you details, or I'd have to ... uhh.. do bad things to you. I've been able to drop off a few more DVDs/ resumes and what-not, still no video nibbles though.
