How do this year’s sales compare to recent years’? Are you seeing a consistent decline or a slow improvement?

Our best year was 2006. Since then, we have seen a consistent decline of revenue. Six percent the first year, 8% the second, and this year I am predicting at least another 8% decrease.

But we’re not worried. Why? Because everyone seems to be in a good mood. They have adjusted to the times and are ready to look forward. So, it is with a sense of optimism that we approach the holiday season.

How do this year’s sales compare to recent years’? Are you seeing a consistent decline or a slow improvement?

Sales were a little slow during the first part of the year. But in September, it was like somebody flipped the switch, and sales have been strong and steady ever since. A couple of departments have really stood out. Jewelry has sold steadily.
