By now you may have noticed that the Industrial Distribution email newsletter that you’re used to receiving on Wednesdays is coming on a more regular basis. The reasons for this are many.
With the fast pace of our industry and the progressive businesses contained therein, we’ve determined that our readers shouldn’t have to wait six days between industry updates. This was the primary motivation for taking the Industrial Distribution Mid-Week Report and condensing it into a more “bite-sized” daily format.
We’ve heard from a lot of you that you’ve long relied on Industrial Distribution to keep a finger on the pulse of this industry, and we’ve determined that the best way for us to reach you is with more focus and more frequency. By launching Today in Distribution, we’ve determined to change with the fast pace of today’s business environment, but with a key competitive edge over other news sources. When you open the day’s email from Industrial Distribution, you can trust there won’t be non-essential news for you to sort through — just a short, targeted briefing on the day’s happenings in your industry, along with an exclusive editorial feature designed to help you run your distributorship better.
And if it’s not too much to ask, we have a request for you: As you look through the next several deployments of Today in Distribution, we’d be delighted if you’d share your thoughts. What do you like? What don’t you like? What would be the most valuable type of content (both in topic and format) that you’d like to see in your Inbox each day? And when you’re done there, please give our new website a look and let us know what you think. As we continue to enhance our web presence, we hope www.IndDist.com will serve as an interactive resource for all of your information needs – now with a fresher face and more intuitive features.
We hope that, with your help, Industrial Distribution’s online components will continue to provide the industry know-how consistent with a brand that has helped businesses in this segment thrive for over a century. Thanks, as always, for your attention, your candor, and your loyal readership.
