Back to School… The most wonderful time of the year?

It is that time of year again… airing the old (but timeless) Staples commercial with the Dad prancing around the aisles of Staples to the Andy Williams’ classic while his kids look on with dejected faces and shoulders hung low. Have you seen it?

This is the first year my kids were old enough (or cared enough) to grasp the concept of the commercial. My 8 year old son turned to me and said, “Is that really how you feel?” No way! I love the quiet mornings around the house planning for my day and conjuring up ideas to get you excited to sell conferencing. These quiet mornings are about to be replaced with lunch packing, breakfast making, teeth brushing, and carcass chauffeuring to school.

With each passing year, I am more and more reluctant to put away my flip-flops and break out the requisite sweaters to face our mid-Atlantic Autumn days… (Just for the record, as you are reading this, sand is between my toes as I milk this Summer for all it is worth)

The good news is that as the days get shorter, conference calls get longer (and more frequent)! September invariably marks a period of increased conferencing activity. As an agent, now is the time to prepare for the impending spike in need. Why not reach out to your client base, tell them how you feel about back to school, and see if you can help them with their conferencing needs?

For conferencing folk like myself, maybe this really is the most wonderful time of the year…
