From Max: There has never been a better or more opportunistic time to sell value-added products and services for value-added prices at high levels within corporate America. At the same time, there has never been a time when there was a greater propensity for all products and services to be pushed downward to a generic or commodity level. The conclusion is simple. There is only one of two places you will be going: going up or going down. And your fate will be dictated by the decisions that you make as to which strategies are appropriate for your business today. Max will lead you through his five truths which will guide your decision-making. Throughout his life, Max has thrived on meeting challenges head-on.
