A few years ago, I received some misdirected email from a group of
Little Caesar's franchisees. As it turns out, the President of the company
and I share the same name.
The first few times it happened, I'd correct people and it would die down.
This latest was too good to pass up.
My original thought was to see if I could get a vinyl cape made for Halloween,
then started thinking I want a full batsuit. In the end, I decided they might play along
a little further if they think it's a semi-serious request from the president.
The question: how should I respond?

Hi Scott, Debbie, We have buying our vinyl for our billboards from Circle Graphics through the xxxx Print Group. The pricing has been cheaper than the posting companies and their quality had held up better. Not sure who you use, but the email below had my contact. Do you think the Co-Op would be interested in entertaining quotes from them?
Thanks,

It will add to the brand authenticity and we can lower our cooling costs throughout the chain. I have a few designs I've been noodling in my spare time and would be glad to share them with you, along with supporting documentation re: anticipated first year savings in energy usage by creating a more "open air" environment.
