Back To Work

It's been back to work at my business today with a few sales calls to make. Sadly none of them turned into any sales though I wasn't really expecting any from the retailers I visited today so I wasn't surprised in the least nor was I disappointed. If nothing else I got to meet the retailers face to face and they all said that my products might work for the holidays so I'll try back again in a few months. Yes, sadly, as one of the retailers and I were talking about, "the holiday" planning starts for all of us in just a few months while the weather is still warm and the big box stores haven't even put their Halloween merchandise on the shelves yet. Sometimes that's the odd thing about being in this industry - you're constantly mentally a few months ahead of the current season.

Tomorrow a bunch more retailers to call to set up for visits next week and I have to start pulling together all the graphics for my new website (very excited!). Hopefully the weather will stay nice and I can do some of the work from my deck.
