performance.

7. What’s the link between Malcolm Gladwell and Jamie Bennett?

Writer and social commentator Malcolm Gladwell theorised ... Every great thinker and doer

throughout history, needs 10,000+ hours of practice to become expert in his/her particular field.

He did some research to prove it.  Wrote a blockbuster about it (OUTLIERS) and sold millions of copies.

Meanwhile Jamie Bennett worked in logistics and removals in Queensland for 25 years and completed

an MBA. During that time he managed way more than 10,000 house and business moves, and proved

his own theory ... PRE-PLANNING is critical for a most-successful-not-so-stressful move.

cartoplan’s tip? If you PRE-PLAN your move with Jamie, and you’ll have time to read Gladwell’s book.

8. Does cartoplan cut out the removal company?

Absolutely not.  

PRE-MOVE which is where you should be looking ahead for the things that might go wrong. 

And if you haven't got lots of experience in logistics, it's when you'll be contacting Jamie Bennett and

cartoplan to get the tasks, actions and inputs mapped and planned. 

Then your chosen removal company does the heavy lifting - working of course with you and Your carto-Plan.
