Do you have a commitment to excellence that is unparalleled in your industry? Or are you the cheapest date around? Take a few minutes to figure out your AOI. And remember, you can’t be all things to all people. You can only be one thing to a group of important people—your best clients. Where do you really innovate—quality, speed/efficiency or price? Now that you know where you innovate, answer this question: How could you take this AOI to a level of innovation that is rarely, or better yet, never seen in the industry?”
