Sommallees and the Entrepreneur
Filed Under Uncategorized · Tagged: downtown portland, portland real estate
Yesterday while working at home on my fishing boat ( that’s another story ), a woman out for a walk with a stroller stopped at my driveway.
Looking across my yard at me it was obvious she wanted to say something. I am used to people stopping and commenting on my yard etc. so I approached her as she stepped briefly into the driveway at arms length from the stroller and said ” Sommalees”.
” Excuse me ? “, is all I could come up with. She repeated ” Sommalees “. ” There is no Sommalees here “ I said to this woman of an undeterminable race or country of origin.
” No, No “, she repeated, ” You want Sommalees ? “ pointing to the stroller. In the bottom of the stroller wrapped in a cloth was a platter full of Tamales.
After the lady left I was left thinking about her entrepreneurship, and how she was out for a walk and stopping briefly at homes where people were outside.
How many of us miss marketing opportunities? Do we pass up great opportunities because they do not seem to fit the mold that we have set for them?
Entrepreneurism is thinking outside the box.
