Each day one step closer.

Today was a real work day, not for me, but Eugene. The entire day was dedicated to driving around the Buffalo area to gather various necessities for the business. Looking at equipment, purchasing security surveillance, television purchases, and a multitude of phone calls bring us one step closer to our opening day goal. The ab machine was sold before we knew about this opportunity. We felt since it is such a popular and well used machine we need to get one in immediately. So that will be our first piece of "new" equipment. The first of many to come in the next year we hope! Our lease agreement is in the works. The possibility of internet, cable and phone connection provided by the local cable company is being looked into. They have to come look around the building to see if they can do it. Keep your fingers crossed, high-speed internet is vital for a 21st Century Business .

We are so pleased with the response we have already gotten from past and current members who are telling us they plan on joining. It's amazing when you think of how technology allows us to market our business and keep people informed. This blog for instance serves as reassurance (I hope) that we will re-open the fitness center and our customers will know exactly when that will happen.

I think we (Southwestern New Yorkers) have become cynical when it comes to economic growth. We have been let down so many times. We hear about amazing business ventures that are going to build up our economy, only to see them get totally demolished or held up in so much political red tape they lose momentum and interest fades. That's why it's so important for us to share this information. We are making it happen, step by step, one step closer.
