James Sellers returns to the show to briefly discuss what’s been going on with his business Sellmark before we dive into the main topic of this week’s episode: the challenges of global manufacturing. James shares why he has to constantly follow geopolitical news and how recent wars have impacted his business, and also shares his perspective on the potential of America leaning into incentivizing domestic production over international. James and I also discussed how he manages business relationships with his international manufacturers and his process for ensuring quality.

Join us this week on P&L to learn all about the high-wire balancing act that is global manufacturing!

Our Favorite Quotes:

  • "When times get tough, you start selling." - James Sellers
  • “So, you know, there's a life cycle of a business. It extends past our life cycles. So therefore, as a life cycle of a business, of a founder, owner, CEO, it becomes very, very crucial that you start developing that leadership that's going to be able to then go on and take it to the next, take it to the next level.” - Rob Schulz
  • "If you are running a business as a family or an individual, and you look at the capital the company is accumulating and you possess that as yours, it changes your thinking. But if you are a CEO hired to run a company and look at those assets, always focusing on the best utilization of those assets, the fact that assets exist, they're worth something, doesn't bother you." - James Sellers
