The July 4th 2023 Celebration Marked the 247th Anniversary of Independence Day

12VOLT CENRAL STUDIOS (07.05.23) Tuesday, July 4th, marked the celebration of Independence Day 247 across the U.S. Many businesses enjoyed a 4-Day 4th of July weekend by taking off Monday the 3rd along with Tuesday July 4th.

July 4th 2023 is seeing a return to somewhat normal with the COVID 19 Pandemic fading further in the rear view mirror. That said, the landscape across the US and around the world is far from normal. Inflation is running high and air travel is a nightmare in many cases. Online sales continue to take away from the brick and mortar marketplace. In-person events are returning but everyday life is far from normal.

Swipe left to see MTX, Meyer Distributing, Installations Unlimited, Oracle Lighting, DS18, Memphis Audio, Kenwood, Max Pro Film and 12volt News say Happy 4th of July.

On the 12volt industry side business has slowed for many as consumers make decisions with allocating their disposable income. Uneasiness with regard to price increases and inventory issues persist.

The business year is divided into 4 quarters….much like a football game. The first quarter of 2023 was AOK for many even without the stimulus checks. As the second quarter came to a close the price of gas has declined but mounting social issues cloud the future. Reports are business has definitely slowed. Worldwide unrest adds to the cloudy future.

Now, as the second half of 2023 gets underway, all businesses must evaluate their game plans and make appropriate adjustments. Importantly, businesses must adjust their shoulder pads and tighten the chin straps on their helmets. Now, as the clock for the second half of 2023 has started, all businesses must keep their eye on the ball, work their game plans and be prepared to quickly make necessary adjustments. Importantly brick and mortar retailers must work to create excitement in their market to drive in-store traffic and business.
