My fave part was when you realized the promotion hadn't even been sent out yet. Are you guys related to the actor Chris Makepeace from My Bodyguard and Meatballs fame? Great post, Wendy.

I agree that this is a great article. I think you should write more of these and less of your sales e-mails. :-) Dave Hi Wendy!

Thanks for the post, Wendy. It also reminds me to keep looking for the silver lining, no matter what.   The old saying is true - behind every good man is a good woman. Thanks for the post, Wendy.

Steve:  In our market, Financial Investments and Health, trying to sell much right before the holidays is definitely a struggle.  But, if you can time it to hit right after the New Year, it's the best time in the world.  July is also another hot time to ask for a sale.  But, I find in The Total Package, the Summer is a bit tough.  I think a lot of people work from home as copywriters and once those kids are out of school, their attention diminishes as well as vacations become the priority. David: I've heard that rumor too about the Redheads doomed to extinction...but, I just refuse to believe it!  Sara:  Thanks for the tip!  That's one I didn't know.  That explains why there seems to be inconsistencies in the mail deliveries. Bruce:  I belive you are right.  And, the predictions coming from some of the most respected Econimist out there are suggesting much higher gas prices than we even are paying now.  We just bought a Toyota Prius because we remember the gas lines of the 70s all too well.  But, be sure to take advantage of the Election year turmoil.  You can definitely use that uncertainty to your advantage. I look forward to the next time! Wendy Thanks everyone, I’m glad I could brighten your day.  This was fun and I’ll definitely want to do it again.

Not to forget all the economic downturns, foreclosures, high gas prices etc. Is this not going to have a big affect on peoples spending habits? Are they not going to 'cut-back' until probably next year, or until this presidential election business is over?
