WOO HOO! Looks like I might be going for the Mexican Restaurant Hat Trick.
Actually, I already HAVE, but the first Mexican Restaurant Website I did...a Taqueria...failed to pay its Web Hosting / Domain Registration bill in year 2, so I'm down to 2...

...but today I played phone tag with the owner of another one, and finally got him on the phone a few minutes ago.

"My name is Mike (my real last name), and I've created Websites for quite a few restaurants in the valley. I just finished the sites for (Mexican Restaurant #1) and (Mexican Restaurant #2), and I've read your Yelp reviews, and I'd welcome the opportunity to stop by, show you my work, and see if I might be of service to you."

...and he said...

"I'd love that!"

He told me about his second location (I already knew about it, because I always do my homework before first contact). He said "My dad is very involved in running the business and he has been under the weather the last couple of days. I'd like to check with him and see how he's doing and call you back in a couple of days and schedule a time when the three of us could meet, so you don't meet with me and then have to come back and repeat it all for him."

I said "That sounds fine to me. I will prepare a document for you this evening with links to the two restaurants I just finished and my other Websites, so you can take a look at my work before we meet."

He said "That would be great."

SO...please keep the DU vibes coming. Today I printed up 25 of my Restaurant Website flyers and plan to hand-deliver them tomorrow, and keep doing it the next day, and the next, and the next...

:-)

A plain ol' hat trick is hockey.
