I was called to get things done
Not to just be nice and be friends.
I guess that's somehow my dilemma.. .
To me, this is a journey that I am walking through, to do things with the intention of love and to wake up the good natural of the public, while I believe the best way is to role model that myself... Big big big lesson!

Dealing with People who are not professional
So I asked a more senior friend of mine the past weekend, when this vendor of ours called me once "hey girl, how are you doing"
He replied, just reply addressing him "boy"
I thought that was funny and ridiculous, and so true!!!!!
So I did today, and apparently this guy was a bit shocked so he replied, "I am a guy"
I should have said yeah, then act like a guy not like a boy
No, cannot do that... because we are dealing with businesses, we are dealing with people, dealing with people who have emotion (but no brain)... so here you go, i hope this will not happen again
He replied, just reply addressing him "boy"

what does our financial statement look like?
Honestly, I admit we are (or I am) way behind in doing our financial projection for year 2011. But hey, rather late than never!
And how can I have negative inventories?? So tricky!!

Stores
It's a long process to get into stores and have people get notified of the products.
There are lots of marketing needed to be done, including demo, flyers, coupon, community support, facebook, newsletter, twitter, ads, etc etc etc
We are doing the best we can; for the local Northern California market I think we are on a somewhat steady but not fast enough expansion; however in the Southern California I am a bit more concerned since that market is literally on hold or slowly dying because the stores do not want to reorder. I am positive that our products will sell, it's just the matter of how we proceed, and how we proceed correctly and sustainably.
Well, will just continue to try...

Dealing with FedEx or any customer service people
Tips
1. Call anddemand request what you want
2. If they don't give you what you want, hang up and dial again
3. Repeat until you get your desirable results
I know it might take longer than expected, but trust me, not everyone know what they are doing; and most of the time they cannot actually resolve your issues of concerns. So when i run into people who can actually get any requests done, I totally appreciate them!
just my little ranting, that's it! lol

And guess what, this new friend of mine Doug (who is a talented singer with amazing crystal clear voice) had the following suggestion. Isn't him just somewhere up there??!!
1) Call and REQUEST what you want.
2) If they don't give you what you want, make certain the problem is not with the information you gave them. If it is not, then
3) Take your business where they have people who respect you.
Just a thought. :)
Thanks Doug =D

So it was super busy!
It's all good, it's all good
There are things we can do,
And there are things we can only pray and hope
I try my best, as my master suggested
You also try your best,
The whole world will rejoice!
=D =D =D

Decision, decision, decision!
A new friend I met at the ExpoWest (who had been vegan for a while and been volunteering and active in the community) has just decided to go back to meat and dairy, which is a little sad (or a lot) because.. I guess because I feel one less comrade.. I remember how we had a good time chatting about different vegan events, etc.
I understand it's all personal choice (health, or what not), and I wish all the good luck; and return to the more compassion and sustainable way very soon too! God bless.
