4. Stay updated on industry trends, competitor activities, and market trends.

It would be ideal if you have worked in a contract manufacturing environment and have knowledge of how this service fits into the supply chain of health and beauty products, but ultimately, the right person with the right attitude and drive is the most important thing.
