It is my new goal to try and write as much as I can, when I can. No promises here guys. So I am on the hunt for a new studio location. And it is going. well.. IT'S GOING!!!!!!!!
So, I ran into a guy, who knew a guy...
Hey, you wanted the full story here! Bada bing...
I mean c'mon. And by the second day, he says to me, "you don't want a partnership" you don't trust people" is it that easy to read me or is this guy a load of crap? No...it's that easy to read me. Lately, I just tell it like it is, I don't put up with crap. I said, what did I do wrong...hehehe...know full well, exactly what what I did and said, but, he replies, "nothing", I'm good at reading people.
Great, glad we got the bullshit out of the way. The bottom line is that I don't want to get washed up in someone else's "brand" and with a guy selling musical instruments, I was afraid of exactly that. So while the idea was enticing, I had to walk away, and let him find his college students for hire and let him pay them $10. an hour to teach out of his store. I don't mind his ideas, and I don't mind if he stole some of mind. I closely kept guarded the idea of "how it will all work"!!!!
Sometimes playing the fool works to my advantage.
Like take the idea of buying a car for example. I walk in every time and these sales guys think..."easy prey", what they don't know is my brother sold cars for years, my husband is a sale's guy, AND I have done my research on the car. So I have three rounds of ammunition in my pocket to protect my finances.
I will not be taken for sticker price, and when I walk out, I know I will be getting the best deal, I am patient, I WILL come back three times if it means I want the bottom line price. Mike say's I should open a "was", "now" store, you know like a it was $100, "now it's $50. I would make a fortune from people like me, Bargain hunters. unfortunately, these stores already exist in the masses... T.j Maxx, Marshall's, Home Goods... AND I LOVE THEM!!!!!
So, final thought for the day, I am still on the hunt for a studio, I am still on the hunt for new students so I can get a new studio. So I am excepting donations :)
