Being Prepared
I was in a sports retail store yesterday and was amazed to see long lines of people waiting to check out. Usually there are just a few people in line, but on this day the lines were surprisingly lengthy I wondered what was going on to cause such a flurry of activity.
You guessed it! People were buying Seahawks sports paraphernalia and souvenirs to celebrate the Seahawks victory over the San Francisco 49ers, and to prepare for the Super Bowl Game! The store was a beehive of activity, and products were nearly jumping off the shelves!
One never knows what special event might suddenly change the sales volume experienced by a business. It could be a natural disaster like a snowstorm, a convention, a holiday, or a new technology product that sparks great interest. One thing is sure, however. To cash in on the profits, it pays to be prepared!
