JohnBarton Report post Posted May 16, 2011 I would like to start a list of places around the world where I can send my customers who need work done on my products. It doesn't happen often but occasionally a snap breaks or a zipper slider fails or something goes wrong which could be fixed by a good leather worker fairly easily. My products are cue cases and for that reason a lot of luggage repair shops won't touch them because they are unfamiliar with them. Even though everything I do is pretty straightforward they still prefer to turn down the work when I send my customers to shoe repair/luggage repair shops. Soooooo, as the title states I want to build a list of leather workers who would be willing to take on repairs and servicing of my cases in the field. If you are interested then please take a look at my website so you can see what we do. www.jbcases.com I am always available to walk you through any part of our cases that you don't understand. So feel free to sign on here or send me an email to repairnetwork@jbideas.com if you would like to be on my list of shops. Bonus: My customers are generally the type of people who like handcrafted and well made stuff so you could end up with another customer each time I send someone your way. And you get to learn how we build a case just in case you want to try one someday. :-) (then maybe you could list me on YOUR global service list) Thank you for any consideration, Best, John Barton Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Johanna Report post Posted July 9, 2011 That's why we created the Leatherworker Directory. It's free to anyone with a legit business for a basic listing. Why reinvent the wheel? ~J Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
