Ho-Ho-Whoa!


Yesterday we helped a customer complete the cost and date purchased information for her inventory. The written report with the cost and date purchased information is such a time-saver and will maximize your insurance settlement if you need to file a claim. She kept saying "I can't believe we have this much," and "I didn't know we still had that," and "I forgot all about these." She and most other customers are amazed at the amount of money they have invested in Christmas decorations.

Here's a brief list to show how it can quickly add up:
  • Tree skirt = $55
  • 7' pre-lit Christmas tree = $479
  • 68 figurine ornaments @ 12 ea = $816
  • 4 Wreaths @ $45 = $180
  • 10 strands of lights @ $17.90 each = $179.00
  • Nativity scene = $175
Just these 6 line items total $1884. Then add garland, snow men, outdoor decorations, village buildings (normally range from $40 to $150 each), holiday china and glassware, Santa collections ... the list goes on an on.

All of a sudden you're changing your Ho-Ho-Ho! to Ho-Ho-WHOA! (Now is the time for blatant self-promotion ... create your inventory, or if you're too busy, give us a call and we'll do it for you!
