Your commitment is such that I sometime forget you are here in the capacity of a third party vendor, and not a full time employee of Nowell\u2019s. The recent 180 degree tune in our marketing efforts several months back comes to mind.<br \/>\nOur needs changed rapidly and unexpectedly. I was hesitant to call you about making changes, and we have previously held closely to our plans as laid the previous fall. But the market shifted, and we had to respond. You had all the changes in place in less than a month \u2013 much sooner than I thought possible. It created a lot of extra work for you, but you never complained, and once the dust settled, we had successfully turned the advertising campaign in a completely different direction, with a stronger call to action.<br \/>\nAs a result, we maintained strong sales during a retail slump that brought others in the local market to a standstill.
