Other good stuff.
• Great case studies to use.
• Especially Alumasc Precision Plc, Aston Martin, and the Clean Bean case studies…
• Some really nice quotes in there.
• From a variety of people in different positions.

• You even have copy. Some not great… be careful.
What you can do now?

• OR
• What takes a short time vs a long time?
