Superior Lamp President Ken Hennig "Recession= Opportunity"

Superior Lamp's biggest growth years have always coincided with "recessionary" economic times. So... while the evening news talks doom and gloom we have reason to be optimistic.
Regardless of economic conditions people still need to turn their lights on every morning. And, because MUST use their lighting, the only way they can cut costs is to go to more efficient, longer lasting lighting.
During recessions businesses trim back on labor leaving fewer people to change light bulbs. During recessions, paying the power bill becomes more difficult causing customers to be more interested in energy saving fluorescents and more. During recessions prospects are willing to take time to sit down and listen to ways to save money.
The only way we can experience a recession in the lighting business is to buy into it. For lighting salespeople recessions are optional activities, you only need to participate if you want to!
At Superior Lamp we have the perfect product line to cut customer's operating expenses, especially their labor demands. We can do all this AND provide them with more seeable light thus improving worker conditions. We truly are in a depression/ recession proof business. At Superior Lamp recessions result in increased opportunity for sales.
So.. ignore the news because it doesn't apply to us. We're too busy selling Heavy Duty lighting as a result.. and making more money!
