Dinner

A conversation at dinner last night with very close real friends. One of our friends travel the world. He is a lecturer proponent and advocate of paperless business. He made a comment last night I did'n't think about till this morning. " A good name doesn't mean much in a very competitive world of business" It was very counter intuitive to my thinking.

Tim, Because of the nature of the business he is in he sees things on a global scale. Our line of site in this trade is purely domestic and focuses only on our home market. Most if not all of us have no current ambitions of expanding abroad. I'm hearing on this and other forums a perceived significant competition from roaming stormier's with SOB foreign crews threatening our bottom line and good name. Are the suppliers concerned about good name of the industry. They only want to sell product to whom ever will pay and can afford it. Are the manufactures concerned about product. To some extent I can only hope. With the failure of so many products I have to ascertain they are concernd about cash flow and planned obsolescent. Not all roofing problems are roofing contractor error. We have to battle all these and more as end users trying to maintain a "Good Name."
