Thank goodness it’s Saturday. After enduring Back Friday on Thursday, and in some cases Wednesday, I’m left wondering what we’re teaching our kids.
Really. You can’t wait til Friday anymore to start Black Friday. It’s gotta start early. Gotta start on Thursday – if not earlier.
Can’t wait til 12:00 AM on Friday. No. No. No.
Gotta get it rolling at least a day early.
I think it’s terrible. I think it’s absolutely pathetic.
Thanksgiving is supposed to be a day of gratitude with family and friends. And if you don’t have any of either, it’s a day of rest – a day you can count your blessings.
At least that’s what I thought it was supposed to be.
So let me be blunt.
I’m not a fan of Black Friday on Thursday. I’m not a fan of anyone who can’t shut his online business down on Thanksgiving.
But I’ll tell you what I AM a fan of on Thanksgiving – as well as other holidays. I’m a fan of doing physical things with your family. I’m a fan of going outdoors to play ball. I’m a fan of sitting around to catch up on reading or DVD watching. And I’m a fan of taking time to remember, reminisce and be grateful.
Do I respect those who have things to sell? Yes, of course. I have products to sell, too, and I’ll get to one of them in a moment.
But before I do, I want you to know that I could have sent an email about my new product on Wednesday, or Thursday and/or on Black Friday.
I didn’t. And the reason I didn’t is because I want my children to know that their Dad doesn’t work on Thanksgiving or have his mind preoccupied with anything else.
We’re going to spend time together, watching ball games, eating, talking – and working out.
They aren’t going to see me taking phone calls to talk business. Nor will they see me return emails or texts. It’s a day of thanks.
Period.
Okay, now that I’ve got that off my chest, I believe I’ve earned the right to tell you about a product I mentioned to you last week.
It’s called Combat Conditioning for KIDS.
It’s so cool both of my children couldn’t resist going through it, naming the exercises I taught them so long ago.
They loved how I renamed The Royal Court. It’s now called The Kid’s Court {TKC). They like how I made TKC into five fat-burning, muscle-moulding exercises instead of three.
And they’re convinced the new spiral-bound format is PERFECT for setting on the floor as you pump out the exercises. No more having to turn the book over or hold it down with your hand to keep it from closing.
I went to a lot of extra time and expense to make these changes – and they’re going to make a HUGE difference for your kids when they workout each day.
Yes, you can do the exercises with them – but you don’t have to.
Yes, you can supervise them as they train – but chances are you won’t have to do very much of that.
Anyway, the newbie is NOW in stock and I’ve got 100 cartoon-ized card decks left that will also go out as a bonus. After they’re gone, I’m not sure if I’ll re-order.
The good news is you can ORDER NOW from the privacy of your home or on your electronic gadget.
You don’t need to camp out in a parking lot overnight.
But you do need to ACT NOW in order to make sure you get the bonus.
Yours,
Matt “Coach” Furey
