Holiday Shopping

My first experience holiday shopping of the year was miserable. Macy's was understaffed and unorganized - about six people waiting for one guy's attention. Everyone was getting pissy and complaining, people were yelling, the mall was stuffy....weh weh, you've all been there.

I finally got annoyed and left, vowing to do all my shopping online and save the BS. The great thing about shopping online is that you can make informative choices. You can research and compare everything on your shopping list without some jabronie trying to sell you something you do not want.

Oddly enough, I had a client later that day who had told how she had put my training package renewal on her Christmas list but her parents were not sure how they actual buy the packages.
Here I am complaining about Macy's, yet I made the process no easier for my own customers?

As soon as I got home, I communicated the issue with Uncle Rick (the IT genus behind the programming of this site) and we solved the issue.

Gift Certificates in increments of $50 are available on the right column of my home page. For each order I receive, I print the formal Gift Certificate, place it in a nice envelop and send it to the desired address (either of the gift giver or receiver).

What's more, I decided to offer 20% off of all in-home training sessions and 10% off of online training until 12/24/09.

Widgets are fun. Clothes are flashy but Professional Fitness Training can transform your body and confidence.

Give the gift that guarantees results.
