Thoughts on a strugging economy ...
John and Carol Salter are hard workers.
As owners of the Money Mailer of the Valleys franchise in Covina, they spend a lot of time promoting and marketing their service. And it's paid off. Their business received just the company's 2008 President's Club Award during Money Mailer's annual December convention in Miami, Fla.
Pretty impressive in this economy. But it hasn't come without lots of hard work.
"We're working hard, no doubt about it ... we're working harder than we ever did," Carol Salter said. "When you're in an economy like this you pick up the pieces, and that means putting in that extra effort. When John comes home at night it's dinner and then back to work."
