“It is amazing what an accurate picture of the relative points of strength & weakness of each company in an industry can be obtained from a representative cross-section of the opinions of those concerned” 🧵
1. Does the company have the products or services with sufficient market potential to make possible a sizable increase in sales for at least several years?
2. Does the management have a determination to continue to develop products or processes that will still further increase total sales potentials when the growth potentials of currently attractive product lines have largely been exploited?
Everyone has a different strategy for selling depending on their investing style.
