For businesses that sell seasonal items, it can be tricky to know how to best be prepared. Below are our top tips to set your business up for success this winter season.
- Sign up for weather alerts
One problem with the winter weather is that it can catch you off guard. When you sign up for our Blank Industries Winter Weather Alerts, not only will you get a weekly weather forecast during the winter season, but you’ll also get notified when a storm is approaching, so you’ll never be caught off guard. You can also follow Blank Industries on Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter and Instagram, to see the updates as well.
- Set up your customer profile
According to our most recent winter weather outlook, this upcoming snow season will come in quickly and hard.

Once you are set up, you will enjoy benefits such as priority shipments, rapid turn around, and exceptional customer service.
