If you're closing up shop for Christmas, let everyone know about it. Bask in the knowledge that you're at home having fun while they're stuck on the phone trying to buy stuff.
 
You might end up deciding against buying from the shop, which is fine! But before you go, have a look at a blog post I wrote about how to record a better business telephone message yourself. There's 10 things you can do to improve the way callers percieve you when you aren't able to answer the phone.
 
If you'd like something tailored to your business, have a listen to my telephony demo reel to get some ideas on what you can do.
 
Ooh, one last thing I want to say.... hope you have a good break! Weird to think I'll be manning the phones while you're opening presents!
