My boss warned me that March would be our biggest month sales wise and possibly our busiest month internally. I was doubtful. I was also wrong. The GLBC was aggressively busy due to hot product – landing us in the #1 spot amongst the business centers with 21,805 vehicle sales for the month, I was appointed to one of the Project Manager positions for the Cultural Innovation challenge where we worked with, not 1, but 5 nonprofit partners, and I recently joined the Board for Detroit Passport to the Arts. Oh, and MSU men’s basketball did pretty well making it to the Elite 8. March was legit madness.
