How to tell if you have had a good customer meeting?

When the customer breaks out the Tequila.

And we are talking real Mexican Tequila, complete with salt and lime.

In the afternoon.

Monday

After a weekend of falling downhill a lot ski-ing today the flyers and stickers arrived. Handed over half to the Crazy Chicken and we are now rapidly losing excuses not to get our first businesses to actually use the solution.

By the way, Vistaprint did a very good job. they look great.

Sticky

After a bit of too-ing and fro-ing I was finally able to order flyers and window stickers.

Well, you learn something new every day including:

• don't use the rude vulvas at local print shops in Munich
• instead use online services such as Vistaprint - they are cheaper and more helpful. OK, they take a few days but only a few and obviously you can't get a pre-run sample
• colours vary depending on code used CMYK v. RGB. Vistaprint (and I guess others) best work with CMYK.

We should get these on Monday.

Networking whilst shooting a movie

On Thursday as I was an extra in an independent movie that was being shot in Munich.

It was actually shot in a pub I often go to.

I actually had a line (unusual for extras) because I had the most English accent of the extras.

Whilst waiting around between filming I was talking to another extra who was interested in our company.

Yesterday I met her to take the discussions forward. Wow, she had a list of comments about the app and the web site. I hadn't expected that.

My co-founder - and maybe me as well - will have further discussions with her.

aka as the post Christmas (and New Year) catch up.

It wasn't exciting.

Did roll out a new release (which kinda justified the purchase of the MacBook Pro so I could do this whilst I was away).
