Greetings!
Whew! May has been a super busy month for us and we have no signs of slowing now!
Thawout and the open house were a huge success. Both had a great turnout and we had so much fun getting to hang out with all our awesome clients. We also got a wealth of new ideas for the future to make these events even bigger and better so make sure to stay tuned!
One week later and we were down in Helen, Georgia for Southern Wörthersee. SoWo brings in people from all over the U.S. to check out the latest trends on the Euro scene and GMP Performance was excited to be part of it. It is always lots of fun and we were happy to meet so many new people interested in what we do here.
Back here at "home", business has been rocking and rolling. We recently introduced a new technician and an additional lift to help us cover the steady influx of work and we couldn't be happier. After all, busy is how we like it! Watch out, June, because here we come. |
