Marketing: Bogota Update Postcard

Just having fun with marketing ideas including old photographs from my mom's photo album.

Letter from John M. re: Design

"Thanks for keeping me in mind to do some further collaboration with you guys. Please feel free to consult with me on any design issue: color/finishes selection, second opinions on design direction, helping with furniture selection/design, etc.

Depending on the complexity of any given task, I might bring my friend/partner Agnes along for her expert opinion. Our collaborations yield better results.

As for my fee, it can be $35 an hour (with or w/o Agnes) or a flat fee is we can assess the scope of the work.

Anything I can do to help speed the process and get Bogota Bistro up and running would be great since I can't wait to sample the menu!!
