" I feel that the current employees are seriously restricted in what they can do by the new management, which is by nature no longer focused on the individual racer or small engine builder." Quote from Alan
I feel you are right.
I was a Loyal open Account WD with Comp from way back in the 80's
I was also a small 2-3 man Engine Machine Shop/Speed Shop
My Deep WD deal went away with the new management.
Guess they thought they would make more money charging me Jobber.
Instead they lost a customer. They showed me that they value mass marketing sellers. I went to a supplier that valued my business and Loyalty & offered price points where my business could make a good profit.
It is a shame that the Corp bean counters just don't understand how it works.
