I tried and tried, and now need to switch tracks

Tuesday, August 10th, 2010

Catch a man a fish, and you can sell it to him. Teach a man to fish, and you ruin a wonderful business opportunity.

I worked throughout the day trying to get, what I thought, was a great blog done for today, only to be fought tooth and nail.  So now we need to go a different track and save my marvelous blog for another day.

The above quote by Karl Marx explains it well.  Bearings Incorporated has gone from a simple blacksmith shop, to the 100 plus year old corporation it is today.  Someone taught the proprietors to fish.  As changes came about, they adapted to them, and we are still adapting to changes today.  We represent multiple product lines, as well as multiple well established manufacturers

Bearings Incorporated  has established themselves over the years, as reliable, trustworthy, and service oriented.  We are now taking the next step in “learning to fish” .  We’re excited about our new website, in the process of being built, and we are hoping it will be launched in September 2010.  Of course as the new BearingsInc.net comes to life, the links  will all change, but the service, and the dedication towards our customer will never change.

We have “learned how to fish” and continue to prosper in today’s shaky economy.  Not only have we learned to fish, we have also learned to clean, bread and pan fry.
