Strategies for Selling in a Recession
Chip Scholz, President, Scholz & Associates
The last year has been one of unprecedented change. It is not likely to end soon. 3PLs are faced with changes to our markets, our businesses, and, in some cases, our way of life. We have more choices than ever, and not all of them are pleasant. The truth is this: to be more effective, 3PLs must change what we do and we must change how we do things. What worked in past years won't necessarily work going forward. With that thought in mind, Scholz will address change.
