Sam Dressner
April 2, 2009
My dearly loved father Sam Dressner passed in Nomember 2006. He was almost 88 years old. He was a wonderful man who guided me in becoming an entrepreneur. I am going to write a number of posts about him because of his influence upon me. Every person ought to have such a loving, caring father as I had.
I began to learn about being an entrepreneur when I was a kid. My father worked on the catalog for All In One Suppliers Inc, a store in NYC where I worked with him for over 30 years. Sam Dressner brought home publicity and papers that needed to be stuffed into envelopes and I believe he paid my brother Joe Dressner and myself one penny for stuffing each envelope. I remember doing this activity for an entire weekend and thinking I was making some money to buy comic books. In working with the materials I was beginning to get an idea of what it was like to be in business.
My father, Sam, spent many hours working on the All In One Suppliers catalogue for for than 30 years. I always asked him how he selected products and how he differentiated one product from the next. These were some of the lessons I learned about entrepreneurship.
Knowing that my father approved and encouraged me to be an entrepreneur, find new products for All In One Suppliers as well as for my other interests greatly encouraged me in life.
Next update: How I went from being a college professor to an entrepreneur.
Writing about my father on the blog is bring me a sense of peace and a feeling of being less stressed. Starting the day reflecting on the person who gave me the intuitive sense to know about products and business is remarkable in keeping me focused.
