Very exciting � Hopefully, however, Wing Enterprises can stay profitable between the their expensive manufacturing practices, senior leadership�s undisciplined spending, and --- most of all --- being inundated with less expensive (but still very high-quality) knock-off ladders such as Gorilla. Wing truly has an entrepreneurial spirit, but I�m not sure if their leadership has the business discipline to fend off the savvy competition in this commodity market. If they don�t differentiate their brand soon, they won�t last another 15 years.
