Sorry to Ask Again, But What Is It That You Do?
It’s the number one question I find myself answering or explaining, especially this time of year.

Cautiously Optimistic
Those of you who know me well know that I am often overly optimistic. My glass is rarely half full. Rather, I am the one whose glass is often overflowing from trying to get a gallon of 2% milk into a tumbler.
Every year at this time, we all get either a huge rush of speculative business, or we find ourselves calling the phone company “just to make sure” our lines are still working because the phones are not ringing.

Planning for 2010
This past week was very busy at Classic, not only in sales and manufacturing where we saw a spike in orders, but also administratively as we devoted three full days to setting goals for 2010 and planning how to achieve them. Every year at this time, we review our successes and failures during current year and chart our sales, marketing, production, and personnel goals for the next full calendar year.

EDPA 2009 Palm Springs
What can I say, other than “What a Week!”
I was in Palm Springs all week for the Annual EDPA Access Meeting. And a great week it was indeed! Very informative and thought provoking.
The general idea and motivation for the annual meeting is to bring trade show industry leaders together, lay down any competitive swords, and work together to better the industry. This year was exactly that.

Get LinkedIn with the Classic Exhibits Network
I am sure many of you are already in LinkedIn, but do you use it consistently? And what does that mean?
I am on LinkedIn everyday, including weekends. Not because I am some obsessive compulsive personality or anything. Rather, it has proven to be a great source of information. It’s a place where I can keep up with the pulse of the industry in “snapshot” style.
