There are many advantages to being a well read publisher in the factory built housing world. For a few moments, let me focus on one of the challenges that often comes up. People want to talk, but do not necessarily want to be quoted.
Professionals want to talk, but at least initially, they want to do so 'off the record.'
No problem.
First, we protect sources.
Next, our default mode is off the record. Unless we mutually agree to a quote or interview, what is said stays off the record. We have a solid track record on this, which is why a growing number of pros do feel comfortable sharing their insights and observations.
It helps us help the Industry when we have a wide array of input and ideas. There can be few things as important as an independent trade media source for helping the Industry advance as needed.
As important as meetings like the Manufactured Housing Institute's 2012 Legislative Session in Washington DC and events are, as valuable as trade shows such as the recent 2012 Louisville or Tulsa manufactured housing show's are, you and others have to have that before and after glue that keeps all the information and insights flowing together.
You will find that here with our Daily Business News, with Feature Articles by top professionals, along with guest commentary on Industry Voices.
Do keep in mind that our Sponsors make it all possible. Please use them, or join them!
When you are ready to comment publicly, you can do so by posting a comment via our Disqus system, or you can submit your own Industry Voices guest column. Let's get and keep the professional conversation going, both on and off the record. ##
