Albuquerque Home and Lifestyle Show 2008

The Albuquerque Home and Lifestyle Show has come and gone. Christian had to really hustle in the few days leading up to the show to get his logo designed, banner constructed, and business cards made. But, all in all, it turned out REALLY well and there was tons of interest. I was so impressed with Christian's confidence and knowledge as people stopped by and asked questions. He was so personable and professional- people stuck around the booth for a while, just talking to him. We're really excited about the next few months and the business this little shindig is going to bring us!!!
Oliver was our secret weapon at the show. People and dogs alike stopped to play with the little guy. We almost decided to rent him out to the other booths- $30/hour!

Way to go Bell Miester! You are the man. I never thought that the poor university student business 'Clarity Window Washing' would have evolved into this. I'm really excited for you man. This ia awesome!!!

Hey dude, give me a call on my Utah number sometime, 801-628-3613. Just remember 6 hours behind (a day ahead). I really want to have a chat with you. Also, I'll be back in the Utah on July 8th, after I make stops in Singapore and Washington DC. Are you guys going to be in ABQ? If so, let me know and I'll book tickets to fly down and see you.

Kookus, this is seriously impressive. I'm loving living the entrepreneurial life through you. I think I'm learning a lot and enjoying the ride. I admire your go-get-em-ness so much.

As I was reading this post I was telling Macy how you have such a great personality for this. I have no doubt this business will be a great success. Congrats on a fun first big step.

Rebecca, thank you so much for putting up this post! What a sweet, supportive wife. It was so fun to see Chris and all his business paraphernalia. Very impressive looking. I love the words you used to describe Chris in this setting--knowledgeable, personable, confident, professional. I agree, and it seems a winning combination to me. And then to use Olliver for the big hook--clevah, clevah!
