For some reason I got a mental image of you staring at her belly in confusion and saying "how did that happen?"
Ooh, Suggestion for a name: Moddy McModFace
I had thought about joking saying that I've been out for the past 3 months, but everyone would know that's a lie ;)Quote:

BTW, how's the business going? Those targets looking any closer yet?
Actually it has really picked up this month. I set the goal of 40 items in 2 months and so far this month I wrote 23 items, so I am on pace.
There were 3 days this month where I wrote as many items in 1 day as I did the whole month of March.
That's cool. Any idea what the uptick is down to? Growing momentum? Seasonal trends? Hard work and a growing sense of panic?
I have been monitoring my marketing like crazy, but really it is nearly all location:
Me: "So how did you hear about our agency?"
Them: "Oh I was passing by and saw your sign"
Yeah, that makes sense. Is it a direct effect (i.e. they walk straight in when they see the shop) or a brand recognition thing (i.e. "we saw your shop a month ago and now we're looking for the insurance")? If it's the latter then perhaps a few tactically placed billboards/radio ads etc. might be a worthwhile investment (budget permitting of course). If it's the former then I guess you just ride the wave (no pun intended)
Maybe a bit of humor on a sign would help.
FREE INSURANCE!!!
(Free dog house insurance with every home policy sold.)
The goal of course is to get people to remember you.
Nah, better to go more "classy" for example:

Just wear a pointy hat. Then when you feel tuckered out you can perch on a corner of the nearest house's stoop and sit still like a garden gnome until ready for more.Quote:

Sounds good, but homes are about a half mile apart minimum around here plus no stoops.
