Whether you are (or work for) a private company or public organization…every so often I believe it is not just important but absolutely critical to ask:  What’s Your “Value Package”?  Does everyone understand what this question refers to?

Well before I get into the factors that I consider true company/organization Value Package components…it is important for me to report that this TRIPLE III TIME topic was generated via a local grant application!  How excellent I thought it was for a grantor to ask every applicant to identify and describe what makes them special…RIGHT?  Yes, often applicants do well to include cool, confident…special attributes about themselves…but this was the first time I officially saw it in writing as a requirement of the grant application!!

OK…enough background…now let’s focus on TRIPLE III TIME What’s Your “Value Package”? factors. So here is my initial list but be advised that these factors are not in any particular order.

• Simplicity:  With the huge rise in everyday information-sharing…keeping things simple has high value.
• Convenience:  Making it a priority to make doing business with you easy and convenient will draw in great customers.
• Reputation:  Having a REAL high quality reputation is only generated if you do great work.
• Timeliness:  Being recognized as a business that delivers products/services on-time is a solid value attribute.
• Reliability:  If you make a promise…keep it in the world of business.
• Accessibility:  In today’s 24/7 communication world, remaining readily accessible to customers can be a priceless value.
• Innovation:  Retaining a practice of offering creative/innovative solutions to business/organization challenges has unlimited value to many.

As you can see every factor that I have listed in this draft “Value Package”…would very much contribute to labeling your group as SPECIAL!

So please take some TRIPLE III TIME and solidly respond to the What’s Your “Value Package”? question.
