Your Take
Real estate calendars are such a fun and useful tool to boost your business. The added bonus is it lasts for the next 12 months. But you have to get started on designing or choosing yours now before the end of 2022. You’ll want to spend the first week or two of January making sure these calendars get into the homes of all your people. Stake your claim to the fridge space early!
