THOUGHTS FROM THE PRESIDENT
Grow Your Business - Now's The Time

I know. I must be crazy you say. Industrial output is low. Banks are not only not lending they're trying to 'claw back' loans and lines of credit. (I love that term, "claw back". That term is the only neat thing to come out of this mess we're in.) We're still in the biggest downturn since (and dangerously close to) the Great Depression. Industry has been permanently diminished. It's still a bettor's game whether GM and Chrysler will make it. It will probably be a year or two before industrial business starts to look normal. But yet, I say don't wait for the upturn to start. Reinvigorate and revitalize your plant site, your manufacturing facility, or your area of production now. Because, if you don't start now, it will be too late.


The pendulum will swing. Many U.S. manufacturers will recover. Demand for your manufactured goods will build. And, money will be made again. So, beg, borrow, lie, cheat or steal (figuratively) but put the resources together to put your part of the business in very good working order. Fix or replace those tired and worn out processes and machines. Now, right now, you have the time to develop an extremely competent and self-sufficient maintenance staff and operations staff. Start doing it today. Don't wait. I am personally distressed to see manufacturing operations moving to Asia during these difficult times because, in some cases, management is giving up and taking the easy route. Give away American manufacturing and what will happen to middle class Americans and how will they afford to buy what we make? And, don't look for the "next big thing". That's a myth. Apply what we know how to build and make here and now. Adapt for the future. When business conditions improve and demand rises will you be able to maximize your plant facility's output with highest quality products? If can do this you will do much to nullify these bad times.

P.S. Crazy or not we made the biggest investment in our company's history. We developed and built shippable training equipment. It was a financial strain to say the least. But now we have something to offer our customer's that no one else can. We're betting on a brighter future. Is there any other logical bet?
