Guest guest Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Congrats !!!!!! The Tampa area is really in need of some major attention from Vitamix...... when I was trying to decide on either VM or Blentec.. I tried all local stores and NO ONE had any Vitamix demo's even planned.. lots of options for the Competitor but not for VM.. just my personal experience.. > > I had my best show ever (for a Whole Foods Market).

Guest guest Posted May 1, 2012 Report Share Posted May 1, 2012 Good for you, you should be very proud of yourself. I'm amazed you sold that many. It is a great feeling that you are helping so many people get healthier. I have been talking to all my friends and strangers about how great the Vitamix is, but they all say it cost too much to buy. I bet the demonstrations in the store helps the number of sales. Thanks for posting what to do with a wet cell phone. I have never had that happen to me, mine just get stolen or have mechanical issues. But now I'll know what to do. Thanks, Janet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 OK, Lea Ann, so you're the reason Vitamix is breaking ground for a $10 million expansion. They need to keep up with your orders! Seriously, that's awesome. Congratulations! By the way, here's the link to the story, which was on the front page of our daily paper today. I live just a couple of miles from the Vitamix headquarters, a truly lovely place: http://www.cleveland.com/business/index.ssf/2012/05/vita-mix_tasting_internation\ al.html > > I had my best show ever (for a Whole Foods Market).

Guest guest Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 If you are going to do any public events in Cleveland let me know and if I can I'll drop by to say hello. If you are a football fan you could slip down to my neck of the woods and visit the Football Hall of Fame in Canton.

Guest guest Posted May 3, 2012 Report Share Posted May 3, 2012 Great article, thanks for sharing. I have been a fan and VM owner since 1977 and it is so nice to say I can still buy the same Made In America product this many years later. Not many items I can say that about in my kitchen.
