May 2009
A lot of companies, and industries for that matter, have been effected by the poor economy. However, Wrigleyville Sports seems to be doing just fine.
“According to David Weiss, Internet marketing manager at Chicago-based memorabilia retailer Wrigleyville Sports, fans have yet to disappoint. “The economy doesn’t always drive our business,” he says. “We focus on teams with a deep fan base.” With the Chicago Cubs in the 2008 baseball playoffs and the Pittsburgh Steelers winning Super Bowl XLIII, Wrigleyville Sports enjoyed a few good months. In fact, December 2008 was its busiest month ever.”
