Officially Listed

So, after a month of comfree, circumstances have suddenly expedited our need to sell. Luckily, we had a fantastic Realtor, already lined up.. Which helped us to weed out and eliminate the slithering snakes, disguised as real estate agents.

The choice was obvious. And easy.. Shifty pricks.

Not to discount the effectiveness of comfree.. I would have been happy, sitting on the property, a while longer. But, doors were opening and closing, much too fast, for the slow lane.

My only real concern, is the lack of online visibility, to local realtors.. So I am told. Comfree really needs to pick up their heels, on this. Listing my property in a city, 2 hours away, with an entirely different (and uninterested) market, is definitely not a conducive use of my hard earned dollar.. Get it together, guys.. Local listing. Figure it out.

All blathering rants aside. I am currently listed with Keller Williams. Full, unhindered Realtor.ca listing. It's only been a day, on the market, and we have some interested prospects! Things are now progressing smoothly.

Oh. And we should have a new location very very soon. Tillsonburg.. Hope you like rustic furniture!

Lazy Tables

What ever happened to Killer Tables?? The blog isn't updated anymore.. Wtf, Kevin?!?

Relax.. I am still here.. Calm down.. Simmer... RELAX!

Okay.. So! I've been super busy with not only building great furniture, for you folks.. But, once again, hunting down some great real estate! Which has been tremendously exhausting.. The long drives, across the damn province..

Across the province.. That's right. Killer Tables is moving! To a less populated, smaller town.. With less potential for a volume based business..

But, Kevin.. That sounds like a silly move, to make at this point..

Yup.. But, I am not a furniture builder for the money, remember!? So relax! I just really enjoy working with wood.. Hopefully I'll still get a large volume of clientèle. Sure.. It would keep me busy! Which is the main focus. Keeping Kevin out of trouble.

Okay.. Fine. Where the bloody is the new shop?

I am getting to that.. The new shop looks like... Tillsonburg!

St Thomas?

Shut up! I said Tillsonburg.. It was going to be in St Thomas.. I know. But, circumstances change. I apologize. St Thomas would certainly have been the ideal location for this breed of craft.. But, things just didn't work out that way. It's unfortunate.. I guess..

So! Look out, Tillsonburg! :D

Killer Workshop, Killed

Well.. We lost the new house, dammit. Someone bid, without the pending sale of their house. So, we got bumped out of the game. It's fairly safe to say, by now, that it's lost. I guess.. Unless they die..

No.. I am a little bummed.. Maybe a tad malicious.. But, not discouraged. We'll find a great place. And I'll build a workshop if I need to. I am good!

Once there's a reasonable offer, on my condo, I'll continue my pursuit of the new HQ. Until then, it's business as usual.. Except for the weekly open house.. That really slows things down.. It will all be over, soon.. Rest assured. And the future of KillerTables will hold tables for everyone! :D

Customer Appreciation

Customer Appreciation day, in any company, is mostly a bullshit way of pretending to care about the hardworking clientèle.. Really, it's the investor's that appreciate you. And by you, they clearly only care about your cash! At the end of the day, you're either a dollar amount, or you are Irrelevant.

So, how am I different? Well, for starters.. I looked at what my competition was selling, and created a similar product, at less than half of their price! I didn't do that for me, did I? Hell no. That one's for you. I know you guys love this rustic furniture stuff.. And it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside, knowing that I made someone happy!


There's no unlawful, or shady business going on here. The building supplies are all newly purchased, from a local businesses. The reason I can sell things cheaper than everyone else? Realistically valuing my own time.. Builders seem to feel entitled to an outlandish salary, for something anyone can do. All you need is a few bucks and access to the Internet, where you'll find countless, free tutorials.

Or, my own instructional account of getting started.

It's important to appreciate customers, every day. Not just their money.. But, their sense of satisfaction. Take pride in your work. When your client's face light up, it will all be worth it.. And stop overcharging. My clients can afford to come back, and buy more.. And they do! Do yours?

Back in business

After a brief absence, in the tabling game, I've return! As you may know, we're selling the condo.. So, I had to keep the place clear, for photos and walk throughs.. The place is still not sold.. But, I can keep the place reasonably clean, for anyone wanting to view the house.

And God damn, this place won't sell fast enough.. Krystal (the wife) had been stressing, because no one's bought it, during the first week.. It's Comfree.. It's going to take some time.. Calm the hell down!

I am not worried.. Though, I am pretty excited about having a new shop. A better shop.. Soon... Soon..

So! Tables! Let's do this! - Sold out

Well.. That was short lived.. More tables, coming soon!
