Great energy at the clinic yesterday as usual right up to the end at the Muggets get-together.
There was a lot of good stuff yesterday including the Landscape Swap-Shop where a lot of the discussion centered on sustainability issues; making topsoils, compost, grinding yard waste-and in general keeping stuff out of the dump, and saving money to boot.
Joel Zeff was a big hit for the second year in a row, with his Saturday night improv show. Jeff has a real talent for taking folks with no talent and making us look/sound funny-mostly making us look funny.
My line of the day comes from Carr Hagerman on trying to find someone to put a Watershape/pond/waterfall on his property;
“I don’t want to see your tape measure, or hear about you taking pictures . . . get me excited, fire me up, make a connection.”
“I don’t want to see your tape measure, or hear about you taking pictures . . . get me excited, fire me up, make a connection.”
What magic to be able to do this!!
What are your thoughts on this Rick. I’ve noticed that you have clients that will look at one of your renderings and “buy the project” on the spot. This is great. While I’m sure it is not magic, it has to be something; possibly the way you hold your mouth? Is it a creative spark that resonates with the client or just doing the right thing at the right time?
