I'll talk about what we are doing, some new stuff going on with the program, some strategies or how the leafs can't make a decent playoff run and if they want my contact after that or not is up to them.

I still remember Vegas Ken handing me a card with his animated face on it years ago. Why? because his stood out from the rest.
Yeah, agreed. I have a mainstream business and when I go to networking events and I hand it to people, they look at it... their eyes bulge out of their heads... and they hold it up to the light... turn it from side to side... look at the back... look at me... look back at the card... and then say "WOW!!"

Every single person I give the card to.

Now, that's an awesome business card
