Close encounters with real life customers

“With so many funny, endearing and immensely encouraging stories and quotes from customers, I thought I’d start a collection and share them here to warm the heart. The photos are different ways I’ve prepared Pink Muesli plus some contributions from real life customers, market scenes, production photos, etc. (Note: Reviews/Comments welcome here)

I’m calling this PINK TALES. Enjoy!”  – Marita (founder/producer)

Pink Tale #39, Peer Pressure

At Smart Living Ballarat FM

A group of five elegantly dressed women in full spring regalia strolls through the market, chattering away as they stroll. They spot the pink, all exclaiming “Pink Muesli??!!!”
Me: Yes, c’mon over ladies and have a taste (I beckon them closer.)
EDW1: What makes it so pink?
Me: Beetroot. Beetroot stains everything. Here have a taste. (I hand them all samples; the fifth one declined as she wasn’t feeling well)
EDW chorus: Umm, that’s so good! Who woulda thought. Beetroot!
EDW2 (the ill one): I don’t like muesli.
EDW3: Oh you’ll like this one (happily munching on the first sample)
EDW4: Yum, I’ll take one to try.
Me: But you haven’t tried them all. I have four flavours, I am happy for you to try them all so you can make an informed decision.
EDW5: Four! My goodness, ok let’s try them all. (I proceed with the samplings)
All this time EDW2 watches with great interest.
EDW1: Hard to choose, they are all so different.
All four end up buying two small bags each of different varieties.
EDW2: I’ll get some too. Which ones should I get? (addressing her girlfriends)
She buys two bags of different varieties.
EDW1: Will you be here next month? Where can we get more if we like them?
Me: I’m just in Daylesford and I also have an online store. Otherwise, I plan to be here again next month!
EDWchorus: Oh good! See you next time
Me: Thank you so much! Have a great day!

I love it when peer pressure works positively! Elegant women are in the pink ?
