    how do you deal with salesman?

    I gave up “cold calling” years ago…No doubt ti is a tough racket these days…But every so often on a local delivery I ask my client for a referral and will “pop in” on a nearby business…Unless the prospect is keen on spending some time with me, I drop off a “package” and leave…

    Rant Alert! Graphic designers "need" to change things.

    I agree it is out of balance…I would probably enlarge Daddio and slide him left a bit and put the feet on the same level as the website…I do not have much training as an “artist” so there may be more tweaks that can be done…That would include how the lettering is placed…

    Printing Coupons or Boxtop Coupons

    The problem with box toppers is you only have a limited customer base…IMO you need to put more effort into new customers…I would suggest printing more menus and delivering them door to door by hand…You need to build up your data base in order to have enough to reach out to again…Good luck…
