It’s the first of May and we’ve started in great fashion, plenty of appointments booked and sales made. Were hoping that the beginning of summer, coupled with the forecast of a warm, dry summer, will bring a boost to the double glazing industry, and the signs are good. Were becoming busier month on month (which should be expected for the time of year) and conversion rates are up from last year. I think a lot of our activity can be explained by the fact that were pushing our energy rated products in all avenues : Internet, newspaper, leaflets, contacting all our previous customers and re-designing our road signs to get maximum exposure. As I’ve said, the more companies can do for themselves, the more likely they are to make through the tough times ahead.
