I am probably much like your dad; I’ve had my ups and downs in my career. I owned my own sports specialty store (under capitalized); I put together a private label program for the Athlete’s Foot company in the 1980’s (but the Chinese factories found a way to get rid of me to assure their success); in addition I have worked for several bankrupt companies. But, that being said, I am RESOURCEFUL.

My brother founded and ran THE NORTH FACE for 21 years; my wife was a marketing manager for Helly Hansen (but after 15 years was laid off when they were purchased by an off-shore company out of Bahrain (sp); and now my daughter is the sales rep for specialty shops for Columbia Sportswear.

Last week, I recieved a note that a contact of mine had a contact at your company and they were looking for a salesman. I am pursuing that side of this, but looking for information on Prep Sportswear, found this interview.

I have a young friend that is now an accountant, but while in college at the University of Washington (TKE) he sold t-shirts to fraternities for their events. THIS COULD BE A REAL BOOST TO YOUR BUSINESS; a new channel of distribution.
