good things

Many of you know that Timothy has recently gotten into the business of painting studio backdrops. It's pretty perfect in that he likes to do it (9 x 7' canvass is fun for him), it's very easy for him, and he can charge a hefty sum and still undercut all the competition.

We thought we'd see how far this could go, so I made fliers. About a week ago I sent out 20 of them to local photography studios, but we hadn't heard anything - except for the one that came back undeliverable.

Yesterday Timothy got a phone call from a woman who owns a studio in Crystal Lake. She really likes the stuff and wants to order two, but first she asked if he could email a PDF of the flier. She has a meeting today with some organization of portrait photographers (there's a big, fancy name I don't remember), and she wants to hand out some of our fliers! She's never met Timothy, never done business with him - but she's our in with who knows how many portrait photographers today! She asked Timothy on the phone yesterday how busy he wanted to be! That's favor, right there.

Prayer works.
