Thanks for the info I will have my husband check on that! I think we will bring the brushes in out of sight out of mind. They may not even notice they are gone. I hope.

We are new to the business and this is out first winter! Any thoughts on why my brushes keep freezing? My wands are fine and my husband said it the soap but he is not sure what soap is best any suggestions? we have been in the single digits and teens for a few days.

Hey thanks for the info. We are aggressively working on getting our name out there but it seems slow then it picks up then slow again. We are going to businesses and schools and athletic associations as well as paper ads and flyers. Do you see a big benefit in the local clipper mags? Where in...
