Richard Parmer, Transportation - Texas State Business Network Member

Richard Parmer, Transportation - Texas State Business Network Member Richard Parmer is the owner of Par-Trans Marketing Inc., a national transportation company. Price competition is the most damaging form of rivalry.

My goals are to be the most profitable and provide excellent service to my customers. I am a salesman at heart with strong management skills in both sales and operations. My experience tells me that you can never be to old to stop learning, you must be persistent, work hard,and communicate with people effectively, that honesty, dependability, integrity and responsibility are words to live by. I ha

ve learned that being the most profitable is better than being the best or the biggest. I was in the LTL freight business before and after the deregulation of the trucking industry. During those times of intense competition companies had a tendency to compete away profits by passing it on to customers in lower prices or dissipating it in higher costs of competing. The more rivalry is based on price, the more companies are competing to be the best or the biggest in an effort to secure market share without financial performance being the overriding goal. The results were and are still the same, the financially strong companies survive and the financially weak ones don't. The real point of competition is earning profits, not taking business away from your rivals. Business competition is about the struggle for profits, the struggle over who gets to capture the value an industry creates. Par-Trans Marketing, Inc:

While much of the volume from opponents of the long-haul cross-border trucking program between the United States and Mexico has toned down in recent months, the program is still alive on both sides of the border -- but there are also developments outside of the program.
