Additionally, traveling by Limo Liner should also decrease the fatigue factor for two people having to drive for three to four hours. The Limo Liner seems like an idea worth trying. 3. $388 savings for one trip 12 trips $4,656   savings in a year TABLE 1-3 Employee Name Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Week 4 Units Sold Brown, Tyler 15 12 23 27 77 Lopez, Cierra 23 18 14 12 67 Prete, Aaron 18 19 27 9 73 Salayon, Steven 21 15 16 17 69 Vidrine, Stephen 31 12 9 15 67 Waddell, Dawn 17 18 12 21 68 Young, Travon 15 19 14 13 61 The overall monthly sales were 482 units.
