Perhaps this season’s pace left you gasping for breath, or it may have been a calmer experience. Either way, going forward equals momentum, and it’s important to acknowledge that movement. In this year’s State of the Industry survey, just over half of respondents expect double-digit profits this year and 42% said that’s an increase over last year.
