How to find work during a recession

Really proud for you, guy. Man’s gotta eat and looks like you have hit upon the means to buy eats. Congratulations.

-- Gary, Huntsville. May you live as long as you want and not want as long as you live.

congrats man. I think I need to do that as well (not the beehives) but get the word out through an article in the local paper.

-- There is no such thing as a mistake. Its called a design modification Rick Kruse, Grand Rapids, MI

Now that was a really good idea! Congratulations!

awesome! gonna check your article later when I get the chance to. Glad to hear you’re behind on orders :o) sometimes a little push goes a long way

-- When in doubt - There is no doubt - Go the safer route.

Beautiful! Not only figured a way to make money and stay busy, sounds like you have improved on an existing design and advanced the science of bee keeping. WOW, far out! Love the honey bees. Great stuff….......

-- mtnwild (Jack), It's not what you see, it's how you see it.

Innovation, gumption and talent, you got it! Good going!

-- Never board, always knotty, lots of growth rings

That’s the way to do it. Find a need and fill it. Good for you.

This is a very good way to drum up business. You looked at an existing solution, found a better one, and built a better mousetrap, or at least a better beehive.

I know of another woodworker who has looked something in a new light and raised business that way as well. I’ve seen people do those custom range boxes for shooters, and also custom ‘race’ boxes for people who race remote control cars.

Great article! You never know what lurks around the corner unless you keep pushing forward. I love to hear success stories like this.

Great news Michael & well done on the article.

Congrats!!! How exciting.

Judging from the informative beehive article which seemed very well detailed and researched, I would say you richly deserve the added business that has resulted. This is a really good example of how to succeed by really trying!
