Although our landscape advertising business has been a big success for ourselves, it is also one of the things that has been a challenge for us. We have seen a significant decline in the quality of our displays, and our clientele, which is around 60-70% real estate agents and 10-20% other commercial clients. We’ve tried to address this issue by…
