Happy Labor Day?

Omygosh. I forgot my checkbook!

Come on, good people. That is the lamest excuse, and I've been hearing it for 22 years now. You don't tell that to the clerk at Wal-Mart or the gas station.

  • No one leaves the house without cash, plastic or a checkbook unless he just doesn't want to invest his money.
  • When you make an appointment to consult with Executive Writing Services, you don't have to pay unless you decide to retain me. But retaining me means you must make a commitment -- a payment.
  • The folks at the Kwik Shop are not going to let you fill your tank and let you tell them that you'll think about and come back later.
  • Please. Bring your wallet or checkbook, and let's talk.
  • If you want to go home and commit to this investment after consulting with your spouse or just think about it over coffee tomorrow, fine.
  • But don't tell me you're going to come back tomorrow with a check, and then not do that. And then call me three days later and ask me how the project is coming along.
  • There are no hidden fees, but I expect to get paid in whole or at least in half before I commence work on your employment marketing document.
