The KNOTSMITHTM Pitch

(in two parts)

Some things you only get to do once. 
If you do it right, once is enough!

Col. Tom Kelly, p. 24 in "Dealer's Choice"

Therefore, take advantage of an available opportunity!  

According to an old maxim, "A man should not try to wear a hat that has more character than he has."  On the other hand,  it would seem desirable to wear a hat with as much individuality and genuine character as you can muster; else you will be an undistinguished and, in fact, an indistinguishable part of the herd of wannabes and  pretendtabe phonies in a world characterized by low-quality, mass-produced, imported-from-china, commercial sameness.  For a few of us, that is not nearly enough, not who we are.   As the lyrics of a Merle Haggard song had it, "I stand right here where I'm at, 'cause I wear my own kinda hat."

Apply that logic to whistle lanyards. You wear whistles for your dogs, of course; but if your "character" includes being a serious sportsman, comfortable with your individuality and comfortably beyond field trialing or hunting on a shoestring, get beyond and distance yourself from the crowd wearing their whistles on  bootlaces or catalog lanyards, the commercial equivalent.  Seize the opportunity to express the full measure of your own kind of  "character," your taste and preference for quality, by wearing a  KNOTSMITHTM  custom-braided whistle lanyard made specifically and especially for you right here in North Central Texas!  Together we'll do you a lanyard "right."  Once will be enough too, 'cause it will outlast us both!  Besides, who knows how much longer I will be making 'em?

Pitch Part 1
Buy a KNOTSMITHTM  lanyard for yourself!

I will hand braid your lanyard selection to your specifications, in your color preference, to fit you and your intended use, and deliver it directly to you with my personal guarantee.   Your lanyard will be a trophy that requires no inscription to explain that you earned it and that it was made especially for you.

Pitch Part 2
Buy a KNOTSMITHTM  lanyard for someone special as a gift or award!

Can't think of what to give a person who seems to have everything and is impressed with very little?  My hand-braided-to-order KNOTSMITHTM l products will be appreciated and will ensure that you and the occasion will be fondly remembered.  KNOTSMITHTM lanyards and leashes are elegant, serviceable, and long-lasting ways to say "You're special!" to your favorite dog person; "Well done!" to field trial winners; or "Thank you!" to clients, trial judges, donors, and your favorite trainer, handler and hunting partner.   Seize the opportune moment to say "You're special!" or "Thank you!" There might not be another, and "intended to, but didn't"  leads to regrets with each recall of the memory.

Consider giving a KNOTSMITHTM Gift Certificate now, let the recipient personalize the product, and , when the certificate is presented to me for redemption, I will put the order in my queue and make and deliver it.

Thank you for your consideration!  I look forward to making a lanyard for you!
