    Thanks for that info...makes sense...the housing market here in my area has been on fire...lots of people saying they sold their house within 48 hours...that of course drives prices up, but my area is huge into the RV manufacturing. Word on the street is that is slowing down significantly...
  2. Slowdown????

    This is EXACTLY us. Our first quarter was the best to date. Backlog is really small, but we are ahead from last year. Seems like our processes are so efficient it only takes us 3-4 days to make what used to take us the entire week. Kudos on your efficiency!

  10. Weekends

    Thanks for all the replies! I am in the same boat as many of you...extra time for the rest of life outside of work has become more important. We started 14 years ago when I was 28..now I'm 42. I have less ambition and drive to make every single buck I possibly can. I feel like we've crested...
  11. Weekends

    Many of us are business owners. What do your weekends look like? Mostly work? I guess what I'm asking is how are you achieving the work/personal life balance that you want in your life?
  12. Lead times

    I think that's a good business practice. We have been known to do the same...who knows what "above and beyond" will translate into for future orders. People remember good customer service.

    I am anal to the point that I refused to do a layout with the customer's improper punctuation. I don't want my work out there with improper punctuation. I think it was an apostrophe issue.

  19. What browser?

    I am getting tired of the ads based on search history, even across safari at home on a Mac and Chrome at work on a PC. I have had people who use Chrome tell me that they have had ads pop up based on things they said in the presence of their phone. Has anyone had this experience?
