New Year's Resolutions 
 
Will they be different this year?
 
By Fred Leeb
 
This year, will you be changing your business or just trying to be as good as last year? 
 
How will you:
  • Expand your share of a tougher, smaller market,
  • Cause employees to pull in the same direction instead of competing with each other,
  • Cut losing businesses, product lines, and negative vested interests
  • Reinvest in employees and equipment (no more deferrals), or
  • Improve quality despite pricing pressure? 
Time and cash will be even more scarce in 2008.  Now is the time to take action rather than make promises that are based more on hope than reality.   
 
We look forward to continuing our relationship with you in the coming year.
 
All the best to you and your family
