Once again, my apologies for being AWOL and not keeping you up to date on this. I've been busier than a man with one hoe and two snakes.
The name of the new venture is..........drum roll please.....................American Window Center!
The prize goes to Fredneck who first introduced the American theme (American Window Systems). We kicked this one around alot since we liked that it ties well to our American Made product. We did decide to change the last part from Systems to Center because part of our approach is to establish well appointed showrooms that we hope our advertising will drive customers to and we felt that "center" would help promote that. Many replacement outfits don't bother with showrooms and rely on just taking hand samples to the customers home. While that's convenient for some customers we feel that having a nice showroom as a base of operations gives folks more confidence in us and makes us appear more "permanent", which we plan to be. We also plan to be very visible so even if they don't visit the showroom before making an appointment, they'll have seen us while they're out and about.
Thanks very much to all who contributed! You gave us a lot of great ideas to work with. I wish I could send cigars to all of you........but I haven't sold that many windows yet!
Fredneck, I'll be in touch with you via PM for address particulars.
Thanks Man!
