Well its that time of year again, the goose is now a chicken, the Christmas tree now a mere twig, the tinsel aluminum foil cut into strips....... Christmas is what we make it, we can all sit around thinking about how hard it has been through the worlds worst financial crisis. We can all sit behind our counters and desks, watching the clock, waiting for the phone to ring, or the door to open. But the doors have locks, and we have keys, its just a matter of finding them. Christmas is what we make it, as is business, hard times and bad deals. The old saying "every dark cloud has a silver lining" is very true. There are always opputunities with any situation, but you wont find them under your desk, or in your pocket. You will have to go further afield, and search, may be even work a little harder, but the pot of gold is still there. It may have changed shape, currency or even colour, but its still there. As business owners we have to learn to adapt, change with our industries and learn new skills to develop our future. Simply sitting on our 20 Years in Tenerife statement will bring us nothing, we need to show people why we have survived, why we are still here and how we can provide, offer and sell our ideas. This time last year my blog was titled a "quest for survivors", I think we have found them, and we are all here to stay, now its time to tell our customers why. Be proud of your success, and smile, walk into the streets and enjoy the people who are there, instead of moaning about the ones who are not. Enjoy the sales you have made, instead of the ones still on the shelf. Happy Christmas, to all of our customers and consumers, we enjoy all of you, and we thankyou for being the people who make everyones ideas and products work.
