In the spirit of the Season:
Christmas Eve is upon us as I write, but I have many clients who ignore that fact. By noon on early close days like today, they tell me which gift to send them! I’ll let you know which looks best this year. One client, now deceased, had me send Starbucks mugs and goodies, Edhardy tee shirts, spray on tan stuff, jeans, Hawaiian shirts – you name it. The jackpot was when the Red Sox won the World Series, he ordered Red Sox licensor shirts and caps for all his employees. Now that I think about it, he may have known he wouldn’t survive long, and needed to spread a little happiness to everyone on his way out. I know I wanted it to last for a whole year, not just one! So enjoy the holiday weekend and I’ll see if it makes me more creative by Monday for more discussions here.
