Some of you might remember back in January, I started a little side business:

Since then, I have had a couple of customers, then things kind of went quiet.
These past few weeks, my sons have been in a soccer league, and I have tried to video as many games as I could.
I took the footage and made a "highlights" video to show at the end of season pizza party, thinking I might interest one or two parents in a copy of the DVD.
I got 15 orders! The video was a smash success! Parents were screaming! Applauding! Cheering when their child was on the screen! I have never had such open enthusiasm for any of my other efforts in life (my Boss doesn't stand on a chair and go "Whoo Whoo!" whenever I turn in a project on time and under budget, and my wife takes me for granted, so this is a new experience for me.). What a rush!
Now my business card is in a lot more hands, and I'm going to make another video for my other son's team, and see if this one is received as enthusiastically.
I don't want to sound like I'm bragging. I just felt pumped up by the experience, and had to share.
