If you’ve been to a department store lately, you’ve probably already noticed that the Christmas and holiday season decorations are out. Everything’s going red and green early this year. Ski resorts are opening early as well, sooner than ever before, even though it’s still fairly warm in the foothills. The merchants are preparing, getting people in the mood and mode to spend, doing what they can to ensure that they maximize their profits before things get tight (as they always seem to do) at the end of December and January. The way the economy has been, many people are being frugal with their budgets, so merchants are taking steps to ensure a continued income. Medical professionals are businesses as well. As a medical professional, you should be doing so too!
