Last fall, my husband, three children and I visited Disney World in Orlando, Florida. We had been preparing for the trip for nearly a year – downloading the Disney app, studying all the rides, dinners, and accommodations. Costs were really adding up. The last thing I wanted to do was fork over more money for the “Fast Passes.” Did we really need them? These passes allow visitors to skip the bulk of the lines of course for an extra cost, of course. After much deliberation over many days, my husband informed me he bought them and there was to be no arguing on my part!
Fast-forward to the trip: As soon as we got to the park each day, we’d head straight to our “Fast Pass” rides – no lines, happy kids, a technologically-savvy spouse to manage the Disney app – all was right in the universe. After a few rides and a snack, I reflected on the value of the “Fast Passes”. The cost was absolutely worth the value I received. I reminded myself right there how lucky we were to afford that luxury, and how lucky I was to have such an organized, thoughtful spouse.
I learned the lesson we’ve all heard before – “You get what you pay for.”
This principle transcends Disney and applies to all sorts of things – including your acrylic monomer supply chain. (Yes, I’m going to pivot now from Disney to acrylic monomers…) In our business, customers often ask what part of the supply chain puzzle we fit into. It’s simple – we connect companies that have demand with the supply. It can often be complicated technically, geographically, logistically, and safety-wise as well. We’ve often come across “do-it-yourself” companies that will privately admit that they have very little confidence in calculating their true costs. We also come across many companies that are single-sourced, and they don’t know where to start or who to turn to for help in reducing supply chain risk.
Call Teckrez – please think of us. We are your “Fast Pass” to mitigating supply chain risk in acrylic monomers. We offer both domestic and import options – our relationships are strong and we can pivot on your behalf – faster than your team has the time to do so, and with the expert’s touch.
I’m certain there are many customers that have had a similar “Ah-hah” moment from working with Teckrez on acrylic monomers, like my “Ah-hah” moment at Disney.
Are you getting what you pay for in your business? Do you need to mitigate your supply chain risk? Please think of Teckrez – your acrylic monomer “Fast Pass!”
