August stagnation
I have been in business contracting small stuff like windows and doors for ions. Before that, I did some bigger stuff but before that I was a painting contractor (when the money was really good).
I've noticed over the years that there are some periods where nothing moves. In the glass business that's the week between 12/25 and 1/1. For customer contact it's the first of the year, around tax time and in mid August to early Sept. Kinda goes along with the back-to-school thing.
But the thing is, everyone goes dormant. Even those w/o children. Right now I have a few irons in the fire, but the fire is out.
Always been this way but I never get used to it.
No, I'm not taking a vacation, the obvious thing to do.
