Celeste Kreutzer replied to Scott Mackenzie's discussion 'Won't Respond'"I had a G.M. at a car dealership tell me he would only deal with an agency out of town. I still wanted to get a relationship with him (because who knows how long dealerships stay with agencies anymore). I sent some "seed"…"

Trudy Coombs replied to Scott Mackenzie's discussion 'Won't Respond'"I have gone to extreme measures to meet up with a client for the first time.
