I traveled for twenty one years with the best sales and show professionals in our industry. If doing five shows a week for fifteen weeks plus several regional shows each year, adding up to 24 weeks on the road, was hard work I would be lying. While it was a lot of time on the road and often spending dozens of minutes on the phone trying to solve a distributor problem I cannot say it was hard work but of the 120 days away from home I spent, only 5 was hard work.
