For young industrial brokers and really any broker who cares about their long-term success and rep, don't let current success degrade your standards of service.
Things change. If you can't respond to inbound requests today, you won't get them tomorrow.

@JeffBezos pays a lot of people to shape his public image. @BradStone is not one of them. His new book "Amazon Unbound" provides the most robust and unvarnished account of the man behind the biggest business explosion of a generation. Buy it and read it. You will learn.

Warehouses waste an estimated 6.9 wks/yr on unnecessary walking and other motion--
about 265 million hours of labor at a cost of $4.3B. No wonder #collaborativerobotics is changing the way people think about #warehouseautomation. #FollowtheLeader #6river hubs.ly/H0lcXpM0
