Ask yourself these few questions: Are you and your employees getting the necessary training to keep you and your employees current in this rapidly changing market? How often do you attend a trade show that highlights new and improved technology in your field? How good is your insurance carrier? Are you able to get competitive quotes? Who notifies you of tire and equipment theft in your area? How aware are you of new state and national legislation that directly affects your business? Do you have representation?
If you are unsure about any of these questions, we can help.
