Good day fellow vending enthusiast. Today's E-Thought is about trust and co operation.Traditionally based supplier/customer relationships for better or worse are changing dramatically in these unprecedented economic times.
Long term relationships are now being based on total cost, trust, innovation, and flexibility. We could all use any help or tools that may be available to us in order to make the changes from a supplier based management perspective to a relationship based management perspective.
For us at Vend Northwest we understand that in order to not only sustain but more importantly succeed in this environment, we need all of you to accomplish this. Thus the Blog.
Innovation lies within the Blog itself, with its virtually unlimited tools for communication sharing there should be nothing overlooked or not said. The potential to speak candidly about topics that are important to all of us is there.
Hopefully you all feel that I trust you guys enough to be able to say the things that I need to say, in the way that I need to say them. Because I do say what I need to say in my own way in every Blog that I post. I know that you all trust in me by the many comments and emails that I receive every time that I post a new blog. I truly believe that by open, honest communication and the sharing of resources, we will all benefit and become more successful. The more that we learn and grow and share with each other, the easier it will be for all of us to become better relationship managers and shift the balance from managing customers and suppliers to managing our business and the relationships that we all will need to thrive. We want this Blog to be a tool used by everyone to learn and grow from. Always remember that the only thing that limits us are the limits that we put on ourselves.
Regards
Curt Wokal
