Upcoming Holiday Weekend

It must be a holiday week…the phones aren’t ringing. Things around the office have been pretty quiet, especially for a chamber office. So, it’s been a great time to do some cleaning up and organizing. First, the old business cards were thrown out. Folks are no longer with companies for various reasons and my, how the companies’ names have changed! This clean-up was long overdue. Next, to the rolodex – yes, I still use one for the more frequently used numbers and to jot down reminder memos about these people..You know, it’s the relationship building thing that is a hot buzz word now. Speaking of which, the Chamber connected folks this week for new jobs possibilities and new entrepreneur opportunities. My hope is that both are successful! Then, to the top of my desk – – more filing and organizing. My advice is to go through this process often. This is a great time to get intouch with past customers and clients.. The next big deal may be a phone call away and with the long holiday weekend, you’ve got the perfect opening line! Later, I’ll tackle the email addresses.
