The Dog Ate My Gift Card

Posted by Ben on 22 December 2008 | 294 Comments

I think the "crazy client story of the week "award goes to the client whose dog decided to munch on The Gent's Place gift card they purchased online recently.  I was told this story over the phone only to see actual proof of the ravaged gift card hours later in person.  I had to take a picture of this to warn you that our gift cards are only dog "resistant" not dog "proof".  Needless to say, we happily processed a new gift card transaction at no cost and sent the clients on their way.
P.S.   If you would like us to spray your gift card with Bitter Apple next time before shipping, I can likely make this happen.

First Day Recap

Posted by Ben on 20 December 2008 | 6 Comments

Yesterday was our first day open and it was a great success!  We were busy from open to close and many guys experienced multiple services.  I really
think we can build a great community here in Frisco and offer the best grooming experience for men in town.  I appreciate the feedback from some of our newest GP Regular Club members; apparently, we will be expanding our whisky selection soon!

Not sure if you guys saw us in the Dallas Business Journal a couple of weeks ago.  I thought it was a good write up and am pleased that the community is taking such an interest in us:

Opened for Business...Finally!

Posted by Ben on 18 December 2008 | 69 Comments

It has been quite a journey dealing with the city and utility companies to open up for business.  After 16 grueling hours of waiting at the shop on a gas meter today (you have to be present for the installation), we finally got it and are opening our doors tomorrow at 10 a.m.  For those of you that are really interested in the full story of our weeklong saga, we can talk about it over a beer in the lounge.  FYI, our half-price gift card promotion ends tomorrow at midnight, so come check out the space and pick one up while you still can!

I am pleased to announce that Perry Gastis, CEO of The Gentlemens Refinery, will be coming to The Gent's Place to train our barber and staff on their exclusive shave services the week of December 8th.  Perry Gastis is a fourth generation Executive Master Barber and is a renowned expert on men's grooming.  The Gentlemens Refinery is a rare men's grooming line with every product being 100% natural, paraben and alcohol free with all ingredients from renewable plant and mineral sources.
