(more) We put projects on face book to attract attention to what we do for the home owner .  We also have all of our trailors painted to company colours with large pictures and company logo that go to all our job sites .  We have a classic truck painted to company colours as well as the logo from the same era as the truck . This truck goes to as many cruise nights as possible as well as parades in our community . I also wear company apparel to reflect and advertise who we are . The classic truck is a great attention grabber and gets a lot of comments . I can not tell you how often I have had people come in to our store and said they saw the truck . I do something at cruise nights that most other vehicle owners do not do . I let the kids get in the truck and you should see the smiles on the faces of the kids and the parents .      The trailors and truck have been a very effective tool for us .  I also have my drivers drive through the downtown core every chance they can even it takes an extra 5 minutes . It is great exposure as well as relatively inexpensive advertising and brand recognition .

At the end of the day you control your own destiny so it is time to start looking for another opportunity or start your own business .  If you stay where you are things are only going to get worse .  YOU HEALTH AND WELL BEING ARE NOT WORTH DAMAGING FOR A POSITION YOU ARE NOT COMFORTABLE IN .  GET OUT AS FAST AS YOU CAN . Leave on your terms and be as amicable as possible . Best of luck to you .  By the way I spell luck a little differently than most people  ( luck ) WORK !  If you WORK hard at what you do you will create your own " luck "

My wife and I both produce crafts that are unique and mostly one of a kind pieces . All our pieces are hand made . We do a number of artisan shows over the course of the spring , summer and fall . Over the winter we take time away from this venue so we can replenish our stock . Go and see some specialty gift stores in your area to see if they would be willing to put some of your goods on display for sale and give them a decent commission for this or sell direct to them . You may have to sell to these stores at a lower price to allow them to mark up your goods . It takes some time to discover the better artisan shows so do not give up easily . Flea markets are not your best bet as the tend to draw those who are looking for something for next to nothing . It would also help to go to some of the artisan shows and see what is being offered for sale and if you feel your product would fit in there .

I can see where you are coming from as many people have the same problems .  Taking a Dale Carniege course helped me step out of shell many years ago and has made a huge difference in my life and career .

(more) I can see where you are coming from as many people have the same problems .  Taking a Dale Carniege course helped me step out of shell many years ago and has made a huge difference in my life and career . Toastmasters is also a great way to overcome that fear . You have to decide what it is you really want out of life and career before you can move forward . Also remember every time you hear the word "NO" this is simply another opportunity to ask the question is there anything else that we have not discussed that would be a help to you business . Best of luck to you . By the way I spell luck a little different than most people , luck is spelled " WORK "

Remember we all put our pants on the same way , walk the same way , eat the same way and live the same way . You are happy with your job . To leave would be to admit defeat and shame . Do not be ashamed of who you are . Your capabilities speak for themselves . Keep your head high and stand proud . What has happened can be considered bullying or harassment so speak to the GM or the HR department . I am not gay but have dealt with many people that have same sex preferences and they are no different than any one else . Your sexual preference is your personal choice . Those that start the rumor mill are typically insecure in life and job . Sooner or later that will jump up to bite them in the butt . Best of luck and keep your head high .

I must agree with the other answers that have been posted . It is time to look at other options to expand your business . It is never a good business plan to put all your eggs in one basket .

It is time to look at other options to expand your business . It is never a good business plan to put all your eggs in one basket .

As to your mom again I agree with the other answers , reach out to others you know , help is out there , you just need to ask for it .

(more) The thing that drove me was my passion of working with my hands to create something I could be proud of and being able to say I did that . It took a long time to get to a point where I was willing to take the risk of starting a new business . I can now stand back after the job is done and be proud of what was accomplished . When the customer walks in and says OMG this looks better than I thought it was going to . I can now leave the customer with a great feeling of pride .
