    You're right that you can ruin your business by not fulfilling commitments. A policy of mine is, if I say I'll take it, I'll get everything moved one way or another and worry about storing/working it later. You might put in some late nights, but it will work out for the good.

    I like your examples idea, just try to think like a person outside the scrap business. You might try asking a friend or local business person that you know to tell you what things they have that they don't know what to do with or how to get rid of. If any of this fits your long wanted list, it might be something to include on your fliers.

    I used to have what I called "panic stage fright" and couldn't talk, sing, or play in front of anyone on mic. Then a friend called me out live one night and it was more embarrassing to refuse than do it, so I ended up being the keyboard player and singer for our church praise band. Now a couple years later, I am still self conscious, but it's a lot better after taking the plunge.


    Good luck and how much for the cat?
