Do you slow down for the holidays? - GoFuckYourself.com

AJHall · 11-21-2011, 10:47 AM

I notice a definite slowdown starting around mid November. We get far less emails and less phone calls. People seem to be "holiday mode" and preoccupied with other stuff.

Do you slow down for the holidays or keep on working?

metabolism and reaction time definitely slo down around the holidays..

I keep working, unless out of town (conference, vacation, etc.). Right now in the process of launching 3 pay sites before end of the year, and a half dozen other smaller support sites. That is just on the adult side. We have a lot of other things going on in the hosting and offline stuff as well.

Money never sleeps.

I don't slow down for the holidays, it's business as usual for me. Whatever shopping I do is done in a single afternoon.

Thanksgiving is Thursday; I'll be working Friday. With Christmas... I'll be out of town for a few days, but I'll still be working as much as I can.

I do notice that everything slows down right before the holidays.

I thought only you and Robbie are excluded from general rules of adult biz? Shit, Robbie can print picture of his big tit wife on dot-matrix printer, scan it and still get 150 signups from Hun Overflow.
And you? Well you are our KING !!!

I'll take Thursday off for Thanksgiving, but back to work on Friday. Probably take off between xmas and new years.
