Don't Wait: Start Your Christmas Shopping

Good Morning, My Friends!


I talk a lot in these newsletters about growing up with Deaf parents, self-help topics, and personal learnings. But I rarely talk about what I do for my main career.


If you didn’t know, I’ve been at UPS for nearly twenty-five years.


So, I’m bringing this Public Service Announcement to you with credibility.


START YOUR CHRISTMAS SHOPPING NOW!

Not because the carriers aren’t capable.


They are (pro-tip: use UPS).


Here are three reasons you may or may not have thought of:


  1. Thanksgiving is one week later this year. Thanksgiving week is often a trigger for people to start their shopping. The way it falls on the calendar, peak season is condensed, which reduces the margin of error carriers may have.


  2. Weather. You never know what winter storm may cripple a certain region of the United States. This point is often overlooked; there are several segments of a supply chain. If there is a storm impact anywhere between the origins and destinations, packages can become delayed.


  3. Procrastination = Stress. This season is best enjoyed when we are not as stressed. Why let the procrastination of shopping impact your stress levels? We can control the timing of this; get it done early!


My Friends, PLEASE don't wait until the last minute. Get it done!


P.S. And Ship with UPS if you can!


P.P.S. If you need a book to gift...please consider gifting my books!
