That Saturday Feeling

I love Saturdays. I know what you're thinking. Most people love Saturdays because they get to enjoy the day off from work. Not me. I love Saturdays because I get to work. No you didn't read that wrong. As many of you may know, at a Harley-Davidson dealership, Saturdays are basically the culmination of everything we strive to be. The enthusiasm is palpable. Hundreds of people stroll through our dealership on the 6th day of every week, each with his (or her) own purpose. Some are browsing the showroom floor, making plans for that perfect set of wheels that sits in front of them. Some are looking for the perfect gift in our Parts or Motorclothes Departments. And some come just to hang out in our customer lounge sharing stories with other riders. Whatever the reason, whoever the person, everyone gets to enjoy free food and coffee and participate in a dealership activity. Today that activity happens to be a drawing for a $250 gift card. There is no better way to brighten someone’s day than to greet him or her at the door with a friendly “hello” followed by “how would you like to win $250”? It’s a quick way to make friends. :) The best part about Saturdays here at Adventure is the positive aura our customer’s bring in with them. The excitement is in the air and everyone shares the same passion. A simple “ready to ride?” can take two strangers from having never spoken before to instant friends. That's why we call our customers family. Family is about trust, loyalty, and enjoyment. So if you haven't joined the Adventure family already, you don't know what you're missing. Don't believe me? Come visit us on a Saturday and I'll guarantee you'll leave with a smile. I love Saturdays.

It's 70 Degrees!

It's mid March here in Ohio and 70 degrees outside! For those of you who get to enjoy warm weather year-round, you may not fully appreciate the magnitude of this statement. We have been anxiously awaiting this shift in weather for oh, about 5 months. The white stuff has finally melted, the sun is shining, and birds are singing. And more importantly, engines are REVVING! Cabin fever has come and gone and I don't know about you, but I'm over it.

Now that the weather is no longer an excuse, I fully expect to see your smiling faces at our dealership in the very near future! We've got a lot of really exciting things happening and if you don't visit us, you'll miss them.

As we round out the final weeks of March, don't forget to swing by our customer lounge to enter for a chance to win a weekend getaway to Milwaukee, complete with 2 tickets to the Harley-Davidson Museum and a 2-night stay at the Brumder Mansion Bed & Breakfast. You can sign up once every single day - so why wouldn't you?!?

Also keep in mind that every Saturday in March we are drawing for a $250 gift card. We draw at 3:00 every week and you don't have to be here to win. You only get one entry for this drawing, though, and we start over every Saturday.

This Saturday we have a special seminar on the new Bluetooth enabled helmet. This thing is wired to sync with everything! Margie (our Motorclothes manager) will be explaining how to use it and why the features are so beneficial.

So get on the road, stop in to see us, and keep an eye out for our SUMMER OF ADVENTURE calendar that will be posted on our website in a few days!
