Welcome to the conversation.

Seth Godin tells the story about Threadless.com, a T-shirt silkscreening company in Chicago.   The company doesn’t aim to sell lots of cheap T-shirts or aggressively advertise.  The remarkable thing about Threadless is that they are open to printing the designs of their customer: ‘Every person who visits the site isn’t just a prospective customer.  They’re a prospective designer,’ (Meatball Sundae).  So it makes complete sense for the company to run design competitions.

I love the openness of this company which is ready to learn from and work with its customers.  People are so creative and this story just encourages me to keep learning from others.  Life really is a conversation.
