What aspects of your relationship with manufacturing are critical?
Problems can arise when the quality of our product changes without the manufacturing or marketing people kn owing. So those are the times when an excellent relation between marketing and manufacturing solves the cu stomer's problems in the shortest period of time.
	What does manufacturing depend on marketing/sales to do?
I guess we rely on the marketing people to pick those products where we are going to make a profit. Becaus e it is so competitive in the market place right now, it is easy to slip into a situation where we can be p utting in a lot of time, effort, and money into producing a product that isn't really going to take us any where in the short or long term. But we are going to start losing money, as soon as, we start manufacturin g and it disappears from the market place a year after we have made the processes or prints.
