So, going into the month of november, with all the disturbing news being thrown in our faces, its tough to keep a good outlook when you have a small business. Employers slashed 240,000 jobs in october. Mercedes Benz cars were down 18% in sales world wide. That of course hits close to home, as that is the brand that I carry.
But I think these times are when small businesses can really win by massaging their low hanging fruit. Service businesses who have taken care of their clients well should only see a small decline in business if they can figure a way to market out of the box.
I am offering gift cards as stocking stuffers for clients who want to give something exciting but not break the bank.
It is a good alternative to buying an exotic or luxury car, and really helps if that person might eventually be in the market to buy the car they might like to rent
