In this episode, Jimmy and Kyle jump back into the Slow Growth Business Podcast to talk about what they’ve been seeing on the sales floor this season. Midline sales are softer, traffic feels different, and holiday buying habits just aren’t what they used to be.
They dig into why that’s happening, what the data actually says, and—most importantly—why December isn’t the month to start panicking or making big changes. Instead, they talk through how to stay steady, keep things positive, and help your team enjoy the season even if the numbers feel a little weird.
From showing bigger pieces to planning ahead for 2026, to simply being a supportive leader during a stressful time of year, this episode is a reminder to take a breath, stay grounded, and let the holidays be what they are.
