Brag Basket – Your open invitation to share successes

By Small Biz Survival

Can it be Friday already? Time for the Brag Basket!
(Actually, you can brag throughout the weekend.)

Wow! That week went quick! Where did all the days go? Time to take a deep breath, relax, and think over your business this week.

How did the week go? Did you accomplish what you set out to do? Did you learn any lessons, maybe the hard way? Well, don’t lose those hard-won lessons! And while you are at it, set out your plan for next week.

So, how does this Brag Basket thing work? Post a comment about anything to do with your business that you would like to brag about.

I know it takes a bit of courage to talk about yourself, so reach for it!

Both new and returning contributors are welcome. Feel free to include a sentence about your business and your home town, if you wish. Bonus points if you are rural/small town!

    I’ll go first! The website for my liquor store brought me a $100 sale, and a recurring customer. Not bad for a site that was only there to list our hours and official holidays!

Howdy!
