Lee, everyone who has ever met me knows I’m a huge Buffett fan, Jimmy Buffett and Warren Buffett. And you’ve learned some of what Mr. Warren Buffett has to say and how he feels about pricing.

He says that if you have your fingers crossed when raising prices hoping you won’t destroy your company, then you don’t have such a great business. And this is one of the key attributes he looks for when he buys businesses.

What do you have to do today to make your business value so high that people will pay what they have to pay in order to keep getting it? That makes your business sticky. That makes your business more valuable. And it makes your business more difficult to replace for the consumer.
Lee Kantor: [00:01:07] So, it’s something that you should be thinking about every single day. What can I do to keep increasing the value that my customers pay so they keep continuing to pay the prices they have to pay in order to get what I have?
