My wife is a sales rep for a dozen companies. Her hottest line? Moderately expensive ladies' apparel sewn in Florida. Around $350 for an outfit (plus accessories), which never goes on the sale rack. The small retailers she sells to always say business could be better, but it ain't bad now. One couldn't wait 2 days for her to show up with new samples, called the company and got whatever they had in stock. Didn't want to lose sales.
I do some housing consulting in addition to my local pursuits. A general contractor I recommended in N. Ohio can't take on a new house until next spring. In S. Carolina another client recently received 48,000 lbs of steel for a new house, he'll be the GC (with a little help). No financial hesitation on his part, the business he has is good.
Even a buddy here, new to independent trucking is finding profitable loads not difficult to come by. He just ordered a custom $2k fuel tank for his truck, that we'll build a custom sleeper over. Unfortunately for him, the tank builder's backed up with previous orders. Freight's moving. Only this afternoon he was talking about expanding his small fleet. I sent him a new haul today.

In our particular hobby, we enjoy the nostalgic return to the days of our youth as we recreate many of the scenes that took place on the family farm that served as the stage for the first few acts of the play that is our live
