Default Re: The Pizza Chain will LAUNCH You into some BIG Numbers!

Hey Don,

Thanks again for your comments and support.

Yes! That just hit me like a ton of bricks
last night. That's a POWERFUL advantage for
us now.

Well... that was actually one of the first
questions they asked me... "who owns the list?".
Calmly and without hesitation I replied...
"We do! But we give you access to download
your client list." And we explained that we
will also send timely advertisments to "their"
list.

They understood and we moved on.

Yes! And the numbers should add up quickly.

It won't say it's been easy. You know as well
as anyone that we've been at this game for
awhile now. But if I could give just one
bit of advise from a war torn entrepreneur
wannabe...

NEVER GIVE UP! KEEP ON TRYING AND PUSHING
FORWARD!

and most important (thank you Gordon and Rick
for reminding me)...

Quit planning and researching and all that
other time wasting stuff and TAKE ACTION NOW!

Thanks for everything guys.

Have great weekend.

Joe Delbecq
