Because everyone has bad habits

Coming up with a new year’s resolution is tricky business – aim too high, and you risk disappointing yourself and others. Aim too low, and nothing ever gets better. Fighting procrastination is a perennial challenge, and temptation lies around every corner.

For the apparel industry, finding an ideal way to kick off 2008 is even trickier business. With the number of individuals and amount of money involved, procrastination and temptation increases dramatically. The industry needs to focus on the most important issues. That’s where you come in.
