What is the best gift a customer can give you?
(or in this case, fellow artist)
Hint: It’s not money.
It is an act that shows that a customer REALLY cares about you . . . Like a referral, help, or even a simple gift or words of support & encouragement.
A couple of weeks ago I wrote a blog about being “unemployable” (in reference to myself). Then yesterday I received a bulky letter in the mail from my dear friend and fellow artist, Lenny Mazzo (from California), along with this funny, but awesome button and the following note:
“Found this at a garage sale & thought of you. Since you might never get one of these from an employer, I thought you might want to give it to yourself sometime you feel worthy of it.”
Take care, Lenny
Lenny,
This is one of the best gifts I’ve ever received! … A good laugh, and a fun day at work. I love it! Thank you!
So, with my awesome button proudly pinned to my shirt I decided to take you all on a tour through A Day in the Life of the Employee of the Month. Of course, being an ARTrepreneur, I wear many hats. Today I was wearing my ‘Gal-Wednesday’ hat out running errands. Sorry, no art studio work today.

As soon as I walked into the Division Street Frame Shop Clementine noticed the big red button and immediately looked at me with a puzzled expression and asked, “Employee of the Month? Who are you working for ?!?!?”
