Lake City WOMEN IN BUSINESS Expo
What a wonderful time we had!!!
This year the Lake City Mall is no longer accommodating any vendors of any type inside the mall, so thanks to our fearless leader, Vickie Griffin, we moved into the out building at the Columbia County Fairgrounds! The only day we could set up shop was during the week on Wed, and with very little advertising, in the formal sense of the word (social media was used!), we had a pretty good crowd! =D
TheCounterTopLady.com featured top names such as #Cambria quartz, #Pompeii quartz, #Corian solid surface, #Zodiaq quartz, natural stone granite, and, the big hit of the day was #Vetrazzo recycled glass!
Please look for us to have our Expo next year on a Saturday....

Guessing We Have "Arrived"!?!?!
Interestingly, we have been fortunate enough to flourish with our repeat and referral clients going into our 6th year of FLGACabinetsTileAndTops.com, LLC, aka TheCounterTopLady.com.
And yes, even though we have chosen not to go the typical brick & mortar route with a showroom (worked for many in the tile and stone industry since 1992 who had showrooms which the potential clients and myself ended up in the slab yards selecting material instead of standing in a showroom looking at a vignette or two; particularly DalTile, who chose to shut down their showrooms for retail traffic approximately 12 years ago), there are many faces and families to feed with this small business behind the .com!
We have found this year that not only have we the blessed feeling that we have "arrived" by the large amount of repeat and referral clients, we have at least one of our competitor's in our area that appears to be threatened by our "arrival"! Literally, this year is the year we have been "told" by a self-proclaimed buddy of a competitor to "stay the @#$% out of Gainesville and Alachua County!" to another buddy going on the TMZ of review sites to make claims that are simply not factual--we were never in receipt of dimensions, never gave specs of project, didn't quote, nor, of course, did any work on this project--but there it is, the seven minute phone call that began with his statement "YOUR DRAWING IS NOT EVEN TO SCALE!!!" and ended with my asking him to please find another fabricator for the project as he was so abusive...
Thankful to have "arrived", but certainly not resting on our laurels--we are ready to ROCK and roll every day (pardon the pun!) with every client we are fortunate enough to encounter!
As our mantra says...She Will, She Will ROCK You!!!
Our families take this mantra very seriously as we always try to do our best for each and every one of our clients!!! And, of course, we enjoy the accolades of winning a few different Customer Service awards voted on by our clients from 2012, two in 2013, and 2014!!!
ROCK on FGCTT/TCTL families, ROCK on........
