A man this smart that is also this humble is unstoppable.

Who is investing heavily in LEAN in a fulfillment or 3PL environment?. Not for the manufacturing part of the business, for the fulfillment side. I'll pay you handsomely for your time.

Why should our brand use a 3PL instead of fulfilling in-house?. Because one of us has to live in Southwest Missouri and it doesn’t sound like you want it to be you.

Very grateful to be included!.

We *might* be opening up a chance to take on another client this year. We only work with clients we can succeed with. We say no to almost everyone. Fewer, deeper relationships+. If you need a 3PL so good they have a waitlist, drop me a line. Now is the time to make a move.
