    tree stuff, its been real....

    Hey guys. I just wanted to chime in because I think this is an interesting and important discussion (since many of us own or manage businesses). I'm currently writing a book and a big part of it is about customer service philosophy. Did we go above and beyond? Yes. Was it sustainable? I...

    TreeStuff and SherrillTree Join Forces

    I completely agree. Feeling unsure of things at this point is completely normal and knowledge IS power. I'm hoping to take as many of you out for drinks at JAMBO as possible (Friday night maybe?) ... and if you can't make it to Indy then maybe at TCIA Baltimore. You can ask questions, punch...

    Several people have asked that. Not announcing the sale would have been dishonest and pretty crazy .... exactly the kind of shady corporate move that we are determined to avoid. I'm much happier with you guys knowing exactly what is up and judging us all based on how we do from here on out...

    Yo. I assume this is, Casey? Sherrill doesn't have anything against New Tribe at all. TS and ST have different customers and I think New Tribe is just a little more TreeStuffy (for lack of a better word). The product offerings are going to remain completely distinct and unique. It is two...

    TreeStuff and SherrillTree Join Forces

    I have a 9 , 7 and 5 year old who think that mom is the only one who really cares about them and that dad loves work more than them. That's what I'm quitting. Don't worry, Dave, I'll still be a workaholic for the rest of my life because I was raised by two tree people (who are in their mid 60s...

    Current News Regarding the SAKA Device

    You're preaching to the choir. The ring and ring friction saver is the classic example. No one in the USA could make this basic staple of climbing gear (without licensing the design) for 17 years because Ken Palmer "invented" it and patented it. It is a bummer if you love innovation, like I...

    Current News Regarding the SAKA Device

    Dave, we didn't throw Richard overboard. We love the SAKA and Richard and all of his ideas. His support of JAMBO and TreeStuff has been amazing. The Haas has a patent. I'm open to every possible solution to this situation, but I'm not going to knowingly infringe on a patent. I'm not a...

    Ropetek at TreeStuff.com

    I just got off the phone with Paul at Ropetek. Paul is not going to allow me to purchase Ropetek products any longer because of our relationship with Sherrill. This bums me out, but it is his prerogative. I've always gotten along great with Paul and Sam (and Robbie, who rocks) and I wish...

    TreeStuff and SherrillTree Join Forces

    This afternoon Erin and I sold TreeStuff.com to SherrillTree. We made this decision for our children, Clark, Alice and Hal. We retain ownership in the company and will be heavily involved, just like always. TreeStuff is going to stay TreeStuff. That will never change. Thank you for your years...

    Taiwan. Copy that! This will be the last post from me on this thread. Tobe, I never got your call the other day. Call me 317.281.1014 when you're free.

    It's about life safety. Sherrill is offering free life support carabiners to Buzz members. I am asking what country these biners are made in. I'm not forcing them to answer the question or casting aspersions. And if we want to talk about class? Scroll back. Tobe has claimed to have read my...

    The green Sherrill branded carabiners? What is the name of the country that these green branded carabiners are made in? Not seeking more drama, but I genuinely care and would like to know.

    This is an excellent point. Free stuff, jambos and discounts do cost a lot of money. We aren't making it up somewhere else. My wife, Erin and I own 100% of TreeStuff. She's 32, I'm 35. I'm super proud of what we are building, but I drive a 2004 Ford Ranger and work way too much. I even...

    Tobe, I'm not going to respond in this space to your slander and defamation. I'm surprised and disappointed, but I have to work tomorrow. If you have something to say 317.281.1014 any time.
