Coach's Corner

by Fred Albrecht

We hope you all have a safe and happy 4th of July Holiday. Hard to believe the year is half over. What is harder to believe is just
how far we have all come together since Suzie and I started our company from a Dream 15 years ago.

 As most of you know, Cindy Hite was our very first sales rep. She actually started sending in orders to us before we were "officially" open for business which was planned for the 4th of July. We chose the 4th of July to officially open as it somewhat represented our "Independence" or "Freedom" you might say to start fresh in the industry with a blank slate and a dream to build a business where people were more than just "a number" or an "interchangeable drill bit", where people were respected and their opinions valued every day not just on the "first day" on the job or while we were "wooing them during the recruiting process".

Truly, our mission statement is as relevant today as it was in July of 1999. Suzie and I feel our most valuable assets are the people with whom we are so fortunate to call business partners and friends. That includes our employees, all of the people at the Proforma World Wide Support center, every employee in every supplier's office and factory and certainly every person who has honored us by trusting us with their business and financial future. Today we have surpassed over 293,000 orders and are well on pace to break 25 Million in sales annually. Yes, we have come a long way since July of 1999.

Since Cindy was the pioneer who first entrusted us with her future, I asked her to check her archives to find her very first order. She dug deep and found these two first orders she placed with us before we were even ready for business. Cindy has gone on to grow her business from 350,000.00 annually to become our very first "Million Dollar" club member and a perennial member ever since she set her sites on breaking that barrier. In fact her best year was 3.2 Million dollars, by far a company record and consistently breaks 1.5 Million each year for the past 12 years. Thank you Cindy for helping us when nobody in the industry even knew we existed!

Happy Anniversary to all of our Friends and Happy 4th of July.

Enjoy your holiday as we all celebrate the freedom and independence to choose.
Fred & Suzie
