mapsedgeI slept well last night for the first time since Friday. Since feeling the onset of the cold, I've been on a pretty aggressive medicinal schedule, and it kept the cold (so far) out of my chest. I feel reasonably good today. For a friend to whom I promised that today I'd be "right as rain", no, sorry, not there yet. Not far, though.
It's been an interesting December for the company. We've signed on two more websites so far this week, will get a third probably tomorrow. Our largest customer - who left us in October - called us out of the blue yesterday, fishing for pricing and options (since their new provider lied about what they could do and are being sued) so that's a fourth.
In December. When budgets are used up and most car dealerships aren't spending money or making changes of any kind.
It is likely that the recession will be good for our company. We're a four person outfit, small, flexible, and have a low overhead. Our larger competitors are laying off workers (meaning quality of service is diminishing), and we just keep rolling along. We may face a glut of competition as some of those who are laid off form start-ups of their own, but we have the advantage of experience and industry contacts - including a write-up in a major industry rag and shared space at the NADA trade show with the largest F&I company in the country.
Things is lookin' up.

Oh yeah glad you're feeling better.
