Thank you. I appreciate how much people have been helping me.

It's easy once you get the hang of things.

We have actually moved my work area to a bigger room so that i can get more done faster.

I plan on making 2ft. 4ft. And 6ft. Booms.

And thanks to my father Tony Shelton for helping me get started with my business. I have had him tell me that he is so proud and that I am doing a really good job but really its all him for helping me from when I get mad at the machine because it won't work or something he always knows how to help me out and keep me going.

I am so thankful with what God has helped me accomplish and I hope that there is much more that I can do.

We are working on my office and should be done by tomorrow. A big thanks again to everyone who has helped me through everything.

Hey Fayth, your office is bigger than mine and thats not fair. Good luck
 
Here is an update on her progress.

We had her working in a dining area but she didn't have enough room and it just made everything confusing. The new room is a space we had used for an office before but has just been used for storage for a while. It's about 400 square feet plus has a patio area where she can mix the internals without making a mess inside.

We had her lay everything out based on how she thinks the work should flow. She should be back up and running sometime tomorrow.

She may think I am helping her a lot. But in reality this is all on her. This is going to be a big part of her home schooling this year.

Fayth is being taught how to work on a cash basis. She started with a little less than $500 of her own money she had saved. Thus far she has only taken $30 in pay since she started and the rest has gone back into the business.

She has a few hurdles. One being the media is really really expensive and the minimum order is $255.

I am making her pay for everything with the exception of the renovating of the work area.

She has website bills, cell phone, advertising, quickbooks, licensing costs, insurance, etc in addition to all the parts to make the booms. I'm trying to teach her how to start with little to nothing and use tenacity and common sense to become successful.

At this point she has enough material to make about 30 booms. Her plan was to sell those at the event and use all the money to purchase more inventory and start working towards selling through distributors.

We have finished the testing and she is going to offer 2ft, 4ft and 6ft double chambered booms on the commercial end and the gutter critter fish shape for homeowners. The double chambers bend in different shapes well and even work in filtration systems folded over on top of themselves to let water run through from the top or the bottom.

The best way to use them is to direct a wide swath or water through them using sand snakes to force all the water through the critters.

Using a few of them a few feet apart gives the water a little time to settle and produces great results. It also makes a good area to neutralize if necessary.

So, have patience, she will be growing slow at first.

I taught her powerpoint last week. I had her take a random subject. She chose "Do Unicorns wearing Tutus reallly exist". I wanted to make it something fun so she wouldn't be nervous about it. She made a 15 minute powerpoint all by herself. Next week she will be using her new powerpoint skills to make her presentation she will give along with Ken Beckstead to tell a lot more about the product including how it works and why it works.

Her promotion will be limited to inexpensive options till she gets a bank account built up.

Speaking of promotion, is there anyone who can tell me how to increase pixels for higher resolution on her logo? She would like to print a few T-shirts and get her company put on the UAMCC red carpet sign but the resolution is too low.

Thanks for all of your encouragement. She was literally jumping up and down and shaking with joy as she read your responses on here. It means a lot to her.
 
Tony, Congratulations man.

First thing is first... Make that sucker either EXTREMELY LARGE (in photoshop) so you can "size it down" without losing pixels... (which is a last resort kind of thing)

or use illustrator to make a vector image (which is the best option)

Wish My office was that large, clutter-free and organized.

Congratulations Fayth!

Very awesome!

If things go as planned, I hope to be building a reclaim/filter system next year, similar to the one Tony shared. When I do, I'm sure I'll be placing an order.

Tony - Like Luis said, you want to convert your logo from pixels to vector. That way, you can size up or down and never lose resolution. If you don't have photoshop and/or illustrator, then you can download the CS2 version of each for free. They are older versions, but work fine. And yes, they are legitimately free. If you already have a logo and don't want to start over, there are many videos on youtube on how to covert it to a vector image using photoshop and illustrator.
 
Congratulations Fayth, I am so VERY VERY proud of you....Keep up the good work and keep and eye out on the fences...just sayin
 
I have every confidence that Fayth will be successful. I was wondering if pre orders were possible, and if I can prepay so that I can pick them up at Vegas?
