It’s been a little over a month since my last update, and for that I apologize. I have been working on finding leads and clients for that time with limited success – actually, very limited. It’s been a bumpy ride since Daytona, but then again, I don’t think there’s ever been a time where it’s been completely smooth sailing for us.
I don’t mean to be all sentimental or mushy, but the truth is, there’s been a lot resisting us when it comes to finding clients. That said, you can only push so hard for so long before things begin to bog down, and things have certainly begun to bog down. And I don’t think there’s anything we can blame it on, so perhaps it’s better to chalk it up to circumstances outside of our control.
Daytona was our last big push for clients, and after a month of following up with people and just trying to make something happen, it is unfortunate for me to say that we weren’t able to make it happen. It doesn’t mean we’re going to quit, but for the past several weeks I have had questions for myself that I simply cannot answer. I know we have the talent and creativity. I know we can produce quality work. But I don’t know what else there is to do to try and find clients, and because of that, progress has ground to a halt.
I’m not quitting. Matt isn’t either. Matt’s got his deal going and I’m going to keep working on finding clients for C2C, but it’s going to have to take a backseat to other things.
I still have hopes and dreams for C2C, and there’s still so much I want to accomplish. Yes, I could find a job with a design company that does everything from design to wraps, but there is nothing like seeing my company’s logo on the B-post of a race car like they were with the Herd Racing Nationwide cars and their SuperLeague boat. I hope there are many more cars bearing our logo to come, but as to when that will happen next, I have no idea.
Like I said, I will continue to work on finding clients, but my focus will be on other things. I’ll keep the blog going. I’ll keep sharing my work and keeping the Facebook and web pages updated. You can still follow me on Twitter. And most of all, you can still contact us to do design work for you.
This isn’t the end for C2C Racing Designs. It’s just a time where we have to change focus and do what we need to do to continue moving forward. I’ve put my heart and soul into this business, and yes, more often than not, I’ve paid dearly for that commitment. But so have a lot of people close to me, and it’s time that I begin taking them into consideration. They’ve supported me and encouraged me to keep pushing forward. It’s time I do the same for them and give them my focus.
I have a couple of things for a client that I’m working on that, once it’s all finished up, I’ll share with you. Keep an eye on the Facebook page and the blog.
Thanks to everyone who has supported me and Coast 2 Coast Racing Designs over the past few years.
