Win…Win…Win!

Most people, certainly business students, are familiar with the phrase “Win-Win”. Typically the term is used to describe an outcome of a negotiation or transaction where both participants walk away satisfied with the results. As one would imagine, this is the desired result and usually results in an ongoing, mutually beneficial relationship. So what’s this “Win-Win-Win” you ask?

I have to be honest and say that although I thought I may have coined the term, an after the fact google search revealed that a Fortune Magazine writer named Rachel Cook had used the term in an article describing the altruistic movement in industry happening of late. Ms. Cook gave a few examples of companies doing great, socially responsible things as part of their business models. So while my ego was a bit deflated, my hat goes of to any company (ie. Warby Parker, TOMS, and Bureo Skateboards *mentioned in the Forbes e-article) operating in such a manner.

As I think about it, when describing RAWZ and the phenomenon of customer satisfaction coinciding with social good resulting from the transaction; the winning or benefits don’t end with merely two parties! First and foremost, RAWZ is dedicated to providing pets with premium nutrition products (Win #1=pet’s health). Whether from our minimally processed dry, gum-free wet, or human grade freeze dried offerings, RAWZ delivers products following a “when only the best will do” philosophy.

I’m losing count of all the wins when it comes to feeding RAWZ, but let me recap. Paramount is that pets win nutritionally. Pet parents win knowing that they are providing their pet with an incredible product. We win by the satisfaction we get seeing pets thrive from minimally processed nutrition. Our RAWZ Fund partners win by the support the community of RAWZ retailers and feeders provide through any profits we make which of course provides all stakeholders with incredible satisfaction!

A third-generation RAWZ family member, Jim spreads the word of optimal pet nutrition through in-store product demos and regular articles for the RAWZ blog. After sustaining a traumatic brain injury in 2006, Jim began participating in the writing program at the Krempels Center in Portsmouth, NH. Writing was a way to process and heal from his injury — but Jim realized he could also use this skill to spread awareness of the RAWZ brand and mission. Jim covers a range of pet health issues for the company blog, as well as more personal stories that connect to the causes RAWZ supports. His favorite thing to write about? People’s strong bonds with their pets.

Outside of his RAWZ duties, Jim is an avid golfer, a traveling speaker for the Krempels Center and an injury prevention awareness advocate. In 2013 Jim published his memoir, “More Than a Speed Bump” documenting his personal experience with traumatic brain injury and his journey to recovery. He’s also a proud pet parent to his black lab Clooney, who he credits with keeping him active.
