Honor…able
Can you believe it? It's like I blinked and suddenly, bam, it's September! August kicked off with a whirlwind of surprises for me. Picture this: I'm doing the classic pre-bed email check and there it is - a message announcing that yours truly snagged an Honorable Mention for the coveted title of America's Finest Optical Retailer 2023. Yep, you guessed it, sleep was a distant cousin that night, making an appearance way past the midnight hour. 😊
Let me spill the beans on a little secret: I tossed my entry into the contest on a whim. I mean, why not? "What have I got to lose?" I thought, considering I've barely had my shop doors open for a year. I was all "Yeah, right, like that's gonna happen!" But lo and behold, something must've clicked with the judges, and here I am, basking in the glow of this unexpected honor.
And now, cue the drumroll... the pressure's officially on! Mind you, it's pressure I've happily piled on myself, but it's pressure nonetheless. I've got this personal standard that I've set, like a bar that's sky high. But let me spill the tea for you, my fabulous clients. This whole endeavor, this shop of mine, it's rooted in one thing: delivering the absolute best in customer service. I'm not just some run-of-the-mill salesperson, oh no. I'm on a mission to introduce you to the wonderful world of Optician wizardry. Teaching, explaining, chatting, listening - that's my jam.
Lemme tell ya, I'm in this for the long run. My goal? To prove why I've earned this shiny badge of honor, and to show you, with your awesome support, why we deserve to grace that cover someday. Who's with me on this stylish adventure? With your help we deserve to be on the cover one day. 🕶️
