FROM THE DESK OF THE PRESIDENT: SAL MANSO – Page 2
JUNE IS HERE AN SO IS THE MOVING SEASON OF 2019!!! We are ready and positioned well with great service providers in support as well as in the production field. Our new salespeople have been trained and they are both now on their own selling. They have great experienced fellow salespeople that they can rely on and go to with any challenging issues. Ops is ready and excited about the opportunities to fulfill all the requests by Sales, Ok maybe excited is too strong a word but they are ready. Accounting is well positioned to do all that is sent to them and do it with speed and accuracy.
We are flat IN SHIPMENT Count versus last year and that is OK because last year was good and we were able to do all that was asked of us and did it well.
Our Local,O & I, Data Bank & International we can control, our biggest challenge going into the 2019 season is the interstate business as Allied & North American are weaker with service providers than a year ago so we have to protect our bookings more so than normal and that’s saying a lot.
So remember we are STRONG and strength doesn’t come from what we can do and it comes from OVERCOMING the challenges we once thought we couldn’t do.
