| Got to side with Jim here in general. Strikes me as odd to measure "success" by the methods you use rather than by the product you produce and profit you make.
There are many different ways to be successful. If you're producing a good product and making a profit, then you're doing it "right" regardless of how you're doing it. Guys on my level are small producers who market direct. Our costs are higher, but so are our margins. And we have a certain amount of "success" doing things this way. No, our methods will never replace the large producers simply because after a certain point they don't scale well. But there is room for both methods - and probably a lot more in between.
Me, I'm optimistic. My biggest problem is I can't produce enough to meet demand. But if I had to pick a problem to have, that would be it...
