This is going to be a short post, because it's not all that complicated an idea.

I recently came across a quote from Henry Ford, one of the greatest business minds of all time:


While most executives understand and follow the first two parts of Ford's "one rule," most ignore the third (and most important) part.

Most executives seem to think that the ideal worker is somebody whom should be paid the lowest wage possible.

Henry Ford knew what all too many executives have obviously forgotten--that that your employees are ultimately your customers.

If your customers are barely surviving, or sick, or worried to death about making ends meet, they lack both the time and money to buy what you're selling.

Like I said, it's not all that complicated an idea.
