“I feel like Rick’s become our partner over the years. He’s been studying our company for four years. There’s nobody that I know that works with us on these presentations that has done the preparation that Rick has done. He knows our culture so well. It seems like he’s the one guy who can take the message we’re trying to deliver and tailor it to our audience.”
Tim Vargo, President and COO, and John Adams, Chairman and CEO, AutoZone

“Well, he’s right. Let’s Overpromise so that we can raise the bar. And let’s Overdeliver. Because everyone else is delivering. What we want to do is we want to Overdeliver. So I think his message is one that’s going to resonate throughout this conference.”
Lupe Fraga, Tejas Office Supply
