Quiet Around Here but Busy Behind the Scenes

Many of you are probably wondering why my last post was over 3 months ago!!?? Well, I have been EXTREMELY busy with a variety of projects and let me tell you...running a retail front sure put things into different perspective.

Anyway...

Online sales have grown tremendously over the past several months making it almost impossible for me to process them overnight like I used to. Furthermore, it takes a lot to post new products. These days, you only see a fraction of what I carry in my physical store. Because of this and a variety of other reasons, my main goal is to get the new LLW website launched for a sleeker more dynamic shopping experience. I promise you won't be dissapointed. :-)

On a different note, I am still working hard to get some new boat brands in our store. Gheenoe has been a hot topic here at Lakeline Watersports and I'll be visiting with them at their manufacturing facility in May. There is one brand in particular that I didn't mention before but a combination of demand and opportunity resulted in our first shipment of Malibu Kayaks arriving in late April!

While I am seriously lagging in many, if not most, of my other goals please know that I am working my butt off to make sure they all happen...maybe a little later than expected but they will happen. :-)

Oh, and my late Spring demo days are in the horizon...details coming soon.

Cheers,
Roland "Bones" Jimenez
