    Thumbs up Forte's 28th Anniversary....

     



    Hi,
    Well it's been 28 years of business on Dec 27th. It's been a long ride....

    The Metro-West News came to my store for a little blurb about my 28th year in business. My bookeeper Kathy thought it was a good idea for some press.....

    Congratulations on the long run and here's wishing your business 28 more. Things are tough all over but it has to start turning around soon. You can only keep people down so long.

    Nice article too.

    Hey Mike, good to see your still "at it". Congratulations on 28 years of business. You deserve all the good that comes your way.

    I may stop in when I'm up your way this summer.

    Congrats, Mike. Your approach to customer service is tops, and it is not hard to believe you have been successful. I'm looking forward to trying out the TKO600 package you assembled for me!

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

    Happy Birthday to the biz, Mike!!!! Not many companies make even half that long anymore, takes a lot of perseverance and a good strong sense for the business you're in and most importantly some very strong ethics on how a business should run and customers should be treated.... You obviously have it all in line quite well! Congrats!!!!
