I am needing some advice on schedueling commisions. I am getting to the piont that I am starting to build a backlog on orders, its not to the stressful piont yet, but it will continue to increase, and I want to get a handle on it before it gets out of control.
Here's the deal, I am getting some real good work, high end stuff, but I am not nieve, the reason I am getting it is not because of my name, one I have a very reputable engraver vouching for me and secondly, because I can do the work and the customers won't have to wait three years to get it. So that means I have to deliver in a timely fashion in order to continue to get work, until I am proven.
So what the question really is, how long are most customers used to waiting?, and How do you handle doing large and small jobs? Do you stick to the order in which they come in? or Do you fit in the small stuff in between the big jobs? Basically how do you keep things under control??? and any other advice I may need to know. Thanks Brian
