Economy sluggish but beginning to move

*******This message was sent to me by a client who wishes to be anonymous and asked me to post it for him******* Wish I could share your optimism. I think how things are going these days depends on which corner you're standing on. Ours isnt seeing a whole lot of traffic yet. You can still count Newsday's ads on the fingers of both hands and if Cablevision wasnt holding it up Newsday would be gone. Speaking of Cablevision. When 50% of most commercial breaks arent Cablevison or Newsday promos and the other half low ball direct response spots things will be looking a lot healthier. The automobile business that so many of us made a good living from for years is all but dead. Major dealerships still closing up - the latest Country Lincoln Mercury Ford and Country Buick Pontiac GMC Cadillac a Huntington fixture - after over 40 years and Ramp Chevrolet of Port Jeff who used to be the country's largest Corvette dealership = gone. At networking events = small fry and wannabe's the real deal makers not around just yet. These days business is where you're lucky enough to find it
