Hey Matt,

Not a personal attack, but a general comment about surveys - They never ask the hard questions - or leave room for comments...or ask questions to determine loyalty...

The 2 things I look for in a service company are dependability and delivering what they promise - in the timeframe promised.

Generally don't see either often in the Marine Services business in my experience...

Please feel free to add it to your survey - Because I do use your client to service my engines...

Done.

Just like Staples ads: "That was easy."

Good luck with your project.

One must look at business from the consumer's point of view. They expect all three of the following. You, the business can only deliver two. Which two are you going to deliver?

Good (quality of goods/service)

Fast (delivery of goods/service)

Inexpensive (cost of goods/service)

For example: You might be able to deliver a quality product, fast... but it won't (and shouldn't be) cheap. You might be able to deliver an inexpensive & high quality product...but it won't be fast on delivery (see custom built carolina cold-molded battlewagons).

If you are doing all three... then your business model is phucked up. You should be the most expensive option on the market with high GPM's and be damn proud of it.

That right there should be the study of your thesis.

Hey Matt,

We are focusing on the Wilmington location, but the final marketing plan/proposal will really be for all of their marine operations.

Thanks!
