Can it really be mid-May already?

My goal for 2011 was to put more effort into marketing Michigan Travels Gourmet Specialties, my gourmet gift box portion of the business. I have taken some steps, and I'm glad for that, but had hoped to be further along with it than where I am. I have researched new boxes for the product and contacted 3 companies who are working up samples for me. I met a friend for coffee, who is a respected business leader and she offered suggestions to help guide and direct. One her suggestions was to speak with a certain banker, which I did last week, regarding obtaining a business line of credit. Not so much because I need it right now, but it will position me for future growth. Another discussion I had was with a lovely woman who was my assistant at Christmas time 2010, and she agreed to come to work for me part time through this summer, which will free me up to do more.

Making progress ... one bitty step at a time!
