the economy

[Kerry]

That's an interesting approach...what kind of local groups and what kind of
advertising? Most ads I've bought have brought me mostly price-shoppers.

I raised my fees 15%, minimized discounts, updated my web site, and
increased advertising with local groups. This has resulted in more new calls
in addition to my regular customers.

List, 
Our services are postponable, and are more of a luxury than a necessity to
most people, Fill the tank with gas, or tune the piano? 
  
What if anything are any of you considering to maintain business in the
comming months with the economy looking so bleak? 
  
Cutting fees? 
Other discounts? 
Other services? 
  
Thanks ,
