* "Online Chair Caning, & Seat Weavers' Directory" tm Shout Out!

  *****  VIDEO UPDATE!  
 
* Video for "Squaring Up" "Rush" Chair Bottoms' using the "Goff Method" was completed this afternoon!
  I was informed today February 13, 2012 that the editing for the Video has been conpleted, mailing
  (from Arkansas) was done within the last few days so shortly I will be able to "Post" it on "You Tube"
  at long last.   This will make life easier for every "Seat Weaver" whom does "Rush" Chair Bottoms' on
  the planet
GUARANTEED!
  

Five Things That "Seat Weavers'" Cannot Recover In Life:
(1) The Stone ....... After It Is Thrown!
(2) The Word ....... After It Is Said!
(3) The Occasion ....... After It Is Missed!
(4) The Time ....... After It Is Gone!
(5) A Person ....... After They Die!
So use integrity!  Less of a burden than regrit!

                                       Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving What If (For Me)
       Recently I read a very interesting paragraph about how, & where to strip off old chairs, & it will NEVER be in my shop 
  again due to inhaling dust, mildew, etc. from an old chair(s) because of where, & how they may have been stored! 
       It will be done outside of my shop with maximum ventilation, & before I bring the chair caning, or seat weaving re- 
  storation into my shop to restore!  
       Coming from an attic, an old barn, a basement, or an out building may cause health problems which I did not bargain for 
  when I took in this or that chair caning or seat weaving restoration to do!
       IMPORTANT NOTE:  Dust Mask, & Gloves will be used ALWAYS during the strip off of old chairs etc.!

test162.jpg

       * If you have discovered, & are daily using the Chair Caning Lock Step Method TM that's absolutely fantastic!
       I will be teaching the Chair Caning Lock Step Method TM without the references/substitions so that it will
  (hopefully) not be so confusing to my Online Class as I did with MY STUDENT ADULT EDUCATION CLASSES!!!  

  They got it, & use it every single day!

                                                    * Signing Your Seatweaving! Smile
       "When I took off the old seats, I found that a little girl had signed her name before the Rush was put on", he said. 
  "I asked the man if her name had any significance, & it turns out it was an old maid great-aunt of his." Smile (smile)
      
"Since then, I've started putting my name, & the date inside of my work!  Maybe 100 years from now, when some-
  body takes my seat off, they"ll feel a connection with me, too." Smile

ADVERTISING, & PROMOTIO DAY!! BAD NEWS IF...
  ON MUN DAY (PARTIALLY BLUE) JUNE 28, 2010 @ 9:49 AM EST

       In doing research about "PITCHING" my "Chair Caning, &
  Seat Weaving Business to a "Craft Editor" or "Craft Reporter" I 
  have learned if I did not have an Ad advertising MY "Chair Canng, &
  Seat Weaving Business with "PHOTO BUZZ" I would literally be
  dead in the water because they would have absolutely nada, nothing, 
  zero to look at concerning MY "Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving 
  Business", & furthermore I would really be wasting their irreplace-
  able, precious, valuable time!!!
  * This would be extremely inconsiderate of me, rude of me, & more!!!
       Would you get "FREE' PUBLICITY" if you "PITCHED" your 
  "Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving Business" with the current Ads' you
  have "WITHOUT PHOTO BUZZ"?  50/50?  MAYBE? PROBABLY 
  NOT?  OR...
       DO YOU EVEN REALLY CARE?
       I DO, & THAT'S THE REASON WHY I'M DOING THIS
  SERIES FOR A FEW WEEKS!!!
       MORE TO COME...NEXT MUN DAY!!!
       * REMEMBER WE ARE LIVING IN "THE NEW ECONOMY"
  & that's going to make a huge difference now, & down the road so
  I'm not only planning on it now: but I'm making the necessary Chair
  Caning, & Seat Weaving Business changes now!!!  ARE YOU???

STORYBOARD (WEEKLY PLANNER) DAY FOR THE UP, & COMING WEEK!!!
  ON SON DAY (SUNNY +) JUNE 27TH, 2010 @ 8:04 AM EST

       Putting the horse before the cart when "PITCHING" your Chair
  Caning, & Seat Weaving Business to the News Media always spells
  disaster because you may only get one (1) shot at it, & that it!!!
       And if the advise you have been given on a "CHAIR CANING,
  & SEAT WEAVING FORUM" IS NOT BASED ON FACTUAL "HOW
  TO" you have not been really done any favors'!!!
       * Do yourself a real favor, & subscribe to two of the absolute
  best media leads, & publicity tips on the planet which are as follows:
          http://www.ReporterConnection.com/
          http://www.PublicityHound.com/
       There is "NO HOT AIR" here with these highly seasoned, 
  extremely successful professionals whom just so happen to be the
  absolute best in the business, & on the planet in my opinion!!!
       What prompted me to write an ("A & P") "ADVERTISING, &
  PROMOTION" series was I almost, "Thankfully I didn't", followed
  advise which was not based on facts, for submitting a PRESS RE-
  LEASE from one of these Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving Forums'!!! 
       * The "NEW ECONOMY" will forever change the way we all
  do business, & it certainly is no laughing matter so we absolutely
  must get it right the very first time!!!
       Since today, SON DAY, is one of those rare days for me where
  I am not on any kind of schedule I will close with just one thing for
  you to "THINK" about, & "REFLECT" on today!!!  And...
       the question is, do you have a "LETTERHEAD" TO "PITCH" your
  "Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving Business" on to a "CRAFT EDITOR",
  or "REPORTER"!!!
       No Business Cards, no Business Envelopes, no Business Letter-
  heads will be an extremely important subject we will discuss after
  we cover your "ADS WITHOUT PHOTO BUZZ" because without them
  you simply cannot "PITCH" your "Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving 
  Business" to any "CRAFT EDITOR', or "REPORTER"!!! 
       These things can be easily, if you are computer literate, done on
  your computer Chair Caners', & Seat Weavers"!!!  
       But remember try to really make them different so they will 
  stand out from the crowd because attention grabbing envelopes,
  cards, & stationary will get results!!!  Be unforgetable!!!
       Example:  "Un4getable Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving" TM, or
                   "Unforgetable Chair Caning, & Seat Weaving" TM
