November has always been one of my favorite months. College football is in full swing, it’s getting cooler during the day, and the holidays are right around the corner.
It’s also a time for being thankful, of course.
As we near Thanksgiving week, it’s nice to step back and reflect on all we have, and how blessed we are. About a month ago, my family celebrated our oldest son’s 21st birthday. Words cannot express how thankful I am for him and how he changed the direction of my life.
This month we celebrate another 21st birthday, and not unlike my son it has changed my life and hopefully a few others along the way. Repertoire is 21 years old this month, which would not be possible without you our reader and the manufacturers that support us. We would like to simply thank you – the medical distribution community – for allowing us to be a part of your life and career.
As we move in to 2015 and reform continues to shape our industry as well as our individual careers and lives, hopefully we can remember to remain thankful for the caregivers that wake up every day and take care of their patients (us).
To the distribution reps, thank you for showing up every day and making a difference in the lives and businesses of your customers. I think I speak for each of the manufacturers that advertise in this magazine when I say we couldn’t do it without you.
We are very much looking forward to serving you our reader next year. In that effort we have added a new line to the Repertoire family. We recently launched the Repertoire YouTube channel. This new addition is 100 percent about you and the value you deliver to our industry. We will be running fun contests every few weeks, so be watching the Dail-E News for ways to participate.
If there are any topics you would like to see us cover please send me a note. Sadams@mdsi.org
Have a great Thanksgiving!
Dedicated to distribution,
R. Scott Adams
