It's Monday 26th July and my next consignment of games is steaming through the Suez canal. I'm still not sure if I've enough space for 1,000 games. 60 large and heavy cartons need to be stored, it's going to be tight. Access to exits and essential amenities within the house must be maintained.
This morning I decided to start my marketing drive, it's taken over a year to get to this point and now I'm ready take on the world. (Cue space odyssey music, the version by Deodato of course.)
So this morning I browsed my contact list that I acquired at the London Toyfair back in January. A list of over 70 high profile retailers, manufacturers and distributors. Where to start? John Lewis? Hamleys? No, I'm going to the top the most famous, exclusive and distinguished shop in the world... Harrods. E-mail sent at 08:00 hrs. Will I get a reply today, tomorrow, next week or even at all? I'm on a mission, I've got deadlines. People to meet, deals to be done. Yes, (puffs out chest) I'll give them 48 hours to get back to me and if there's no response, well, I'll just...erm...give them a bit more time?
