So far January was down a couple grand from last year, coming off my best year ever.
The stock market bounce and the government shut down didn’t help.
Still we mailed 400 cards in January and 400 more in February.
All with a $20 increase in our minimum.
But offering 15% in January and 10% off in February.
So far this month we won’t even do half of what we did last February.
My tech has worked two days and I’m flying solo mostly and one or two jobs a day.
And it never fails that every bottom feeder customer comes out when they know your desperate!
My wife says it will pick up in March!
But I’m tempted to drop the price increase and remail all 800 cards with a spring special
With last years prices.
I actually was hoping to slow down a bit this year.
Slow down not go out of business.
I usually don’t panicked I’ve ran the same numbers a year for the last 8-9 years.
So I’m starting to panic.
Anybody need cheap wands or tools?
Hahahahaha.
