Running door to door selling ad space on our site I've found an interesting note. Perspective is the answer of late. Two types of businesses I find quite often are coffee shops and Fitness gyms, both of which could be falling on hard times in this economy. The truth is, when asked about their condition, I've heard everything. Some say gym membrships are an easy expense to cut in rough times, some economist say to lay off $4 lattes and I'm glad some people just don't listen. Perspective is everthing.
The owners that are doing well have got it figured out, take Betsy from Curves for example. Her philosopghy is simple, for $30 a month women get some time to themselves and get to do something that good for the body and soul. Where else can you get that kind of return on $30. Taking an hour out of a busy week to sit and maybe read, or chat with an old friend over coffee is just what life is all about. The business owners who are reminding their clientele seem to be doing well. Maybe we should all take a hint from their success.
