That experience will give you good footing in marketing and staffing, but what you are missing is that you are dealing with a highly perishable stock. The damage that bad timing creates in fashion and banking is still somewhat salvageable. With fish, any loss is total loss. You have as short a time frame as in funds transfers that missing will not just be a partial monetary, but total loss to the investment. The only comparable business I know is a fresh florist. You have a limited and sometime unpredictable window to get your stock and then get it out the door. At least with flowers there isn't the risk of people getting sick.


Only an open mind and open heart can be filled with life.
