My business is fairly seasonal - slower in the winter and busier in the spring/fall.
I'm guessing yours may be the same way. This year, it's been a lot more challenging than usual with the snow.
But, this week things are really starting to turn. Finally, the snow is starting to melt and the weather is bearable and the days are longer, and all of a sudden there is a lot of hope and anticipation. We have closed a lot of sales this week - both from customers that we have just met with as well as from customers who we met with last year.
We have a lot of people in a rush... they are planning to put their house on the market or they are about to move in, or they had water damage (due to all this snow) or they are now just finally ready and want to get moving on their home improvement project. It's very exciting. Everything is starting to click.
I can see a more upbeat tone in the blogs I'm reading. Everyone is encouraging their customer to get ready for the spring market. I see pictures of flowers and grass (ooohh...forgot what that looks like since all this white stuff has gotten in the way).
I know this is a sign of good things to come - in all of our markets. So, let's get ready for a wonderful spring market. March is almost here. And, if you're not busy yet, take steps so you will be well positioned. It's coming...real soon. I promise. So, let's keep the positive thinking going. People love to be around people with positive energy. Remember that.
