The result is that you must keep moving it forward. No one knows with absolute certainty what tomorrow will bring. As far back as ancient times, King Solomon advised his people to "cast their bread upon the waters." Solomon was speaking of business and trade. In those days business and investment meant sending your goods by boat to different markets and it might be three years before you saw a return. Investment and risk taking was the key to financial success in ancient times and remains so today. Diversification is and was the key to growing a business and being successful.
In the transportation industry there are a multitude of opportunities and different paths toward success. At Allen Lund Company we move dry freight, produce, frozen and refrigerated freight as well as flatbed freight and just about any other business we can get our hands on. We pride ourselves in always looking toward the future and new business opportunities.
A good friend of mine said it best, "Nobody can steer a parked car." One thing is for sure, your business will not grow and be successful if you are not taking chances and Moving It Forward!
