Is business picking up?

Back in November, I noticed that business was picking up significantly in the second half of '09. We have noticed a big surge in pitch activity and training, even when compared to the last half of '09.

An increase in training is a terrific sign for our industry. Training tends to be a good indicator of the health of an organization or industry since training budgets are the first to get cut when times are bad. I am not suggesting that the industry is experiencing a boom time, but it is a good sign.

What are you noticing regarding business activity?

  1. March 28, 2010 - Both our training programs and attendance at our workshops hosted by AAAA.org are way up. I do not think the industry is back to where it was (and it may never get back to those levels) but we seem to be transitioning from bad times to better times.
