Have you ever been "un comfortable" with a decision? Ever wonder if the choice you are making is the right one? Ever had somebody look at you funny when you are telling them your thoughts, Ideas? If you answered yes to all of these or even some of these questions I would be willing to bet that you have what it takes to be a pioneer in your industry or at least are a "forward thinking" individual. If you can speak your mind and are confident about doing so, then I would also say that perhaps you already are "standing out in a crowd".
The "status quo" is not enough anymore, look at the economy, the un employment rate, the housing market..... all of these areas "rested" on the "status quo" for waaaaay to long and look where it got us. To many of us (me included) tend to trust that things will take care of themselves or at least stay the same......NOT !
I would be "treading water" if left to my own will or my own way of thinking just because, I like many of my fellow Human Beings am some what complacent or comfortable with my life and the way of doing things. Fortunately I have a Best Friend and Partner in life that is an "A" personality and only ever expects that what we get out of life is never greater than the effort that we put into it. Now I'm not saying that I'm a total slacker but I do tend to be "distracted" or "comfortable".
I guess my point to this Blog Post is to get us all thinking about how incredible things would be if everyone had the mind set that he or she were the only ones that were in command of there well being.
If you want something..... MAKE IT HAPPEN !! Don't let other peoples thoughts or business control you and yours. Expect the unexpected, make the impossible possible, have a "can do attitude".
If you think you can, then you can and if not, I am sure that you have people in your network that would be more than willing to help you succeed. These people are an essential piece to your success, use them! Never under estimate the tools that you have at your disposal even if you don't think you have any "tools" trust me you do, we all do. The difference is attitude. To quote one of my favorite television personalities, Tim Gunn " Make it Work" !!!

SUCCESS IS JUST A PARTNERSHIP AWAY
Vend X intends to create efficiencies by reducing the number of transactions necessary for goods to flow from many different manufacturers to large numbers of customers. This is a proven method of increasing profitability. This is typically done in two ways. The first is called “breaking bulk”. Wholesalers and retailers purchase large quantities of goods from manufacturers but sell only one or a few at a time to many different customers.
Second, channel intermediaries reduce the number of transactions by creating assortments—providing a variety of products in one location—so that customers can conveniently buy many different items from one seller at one time.
To balance customers' demands with the need for profitable growth, Vend X has moved aggressively to improve supply chain management.
We are telling you this (and our competitors) because we believe that it is truly time for a change from the “status quo” in the industry, to a more profitable partnership oriented way of thinking and doing business. If one has the ability, we all have the ability and we all shall reap the rewards. What good is a distributor if you rely solely on one or even two customers to move your wares? That’s not a “free” market environment?
Rejecting the traditional view of a company and it’s component parts as distinct functional entities, we realize that the real measure of success is how well activities coordinate across the supply chain to create value for our customers, all the while increasing the profitability of every link in the chain. In the process, we intend to redefine the competitive game between all the distributors in our industry.
By determining what customers want and how to coordinate efforts across the supply chain to meet those requirements faster, cheaper, and better, Vend X will enhance both customer satisfaction as well as the financial performance of said customers. Making all aspects of the chain more profitable from our suppliers’ supplier to our customers’ customer.
We are ready and willing to do our part in achieving the goal of reducing costs across the supply chain in order to lower prices in the marketplace and enhance margins.
The best prescription for ensuring success and minimizing resistance is extensive, visible participation and communication.
Shara and I both agree that our success in this venture is solely in you, our customers’ hands. We whole heartedly promise to walk, talk and work with you and our suppliers through every aspect of the journey to ensure that we all will gain and share in increased profitability and all around healthier businesses!!!
Have a GREAT weekend Peeps !!!!!!!
