Uncle Luigi had a plumbing supply distribution business. He had exclusive rights to sell “Mushroom wrench” brand products in his city.
My uncle Luigi dominated the market. He was happy.
“Luigi, you should consider selling other products through your business. If something ever goes wrong with Mushroom Brand, you can continue selling other items.” his friend Mario suggested one day.
My uncle Luigi laughed at him and said, “No, Mario, I’ve been selling these Mushroom Wrenches for over twenty-five years. I’m the number one distributor. The brand is successful. I’m successful. What could ever go wrong?”
But something did …
A few months later, the news was out, “Bowser Wrench buys its competitor Mushroom Brand, for six billion dollars!”
And just like that, in a matter of days, “Mushroom Wrench” was strategically eliminated from the market. My uncle Luigi had no more products to sell.
Lesson: NEVER rely on one source of income! You never know what Will go wrong … it’s just a matter of time.
Thank you for Reading 🙏 😊
