Feeling Goofy

I have no idea why but so far I've been goofy all day.


Nothing bothers me.

Not the commercial accounts who owe me money (that's a novel concept!)

Not the "wonderful" personalities I am surrounded with. (window tint installers are not your happy go lucky types!)

No. .I am happier than the kids on Glee!



So with goofy all over me I thought I'd give my take on the larger world of window film circa December 2010.

First off let me pontificate by saying that I have never seen an industry with such poor leadership.

It's an incestuous interwoven relationship between the manufacturers who compete on the one hand; while simultaneously working back door deals with each other behind a "proverbial" closed door.

The economy sucks and their decreasing sales numbers have to be a huge concern.

You might think these corporate types would create programs to inspire their troops?

Nope.

You might think they'd survey their most successful dealers and gather some best practices to share among their channels?

Nope.

You might think they'd invest in training and consumer directed advertising or sales development programs?

Nope.

You might think that they'd be thinking?

Nope.


I have installers from around the USA asking me for work.

Dealers who I know for more than a decade being so quiet you'd think they were in the witness protection program.

Maybe I am just goofy because we are doing two large installs today.

Two even bigger on Friday.

And TECO decided to up the ante on rebate incentives.

Nah. .

I'm just being goofy!
