Oooo please. You can have gracious professionalism which then in turn helps you profit. I had a pump that was being repaired for $2,000. It is an expensive pump at that. The person repairing the pump noticed that something unusual happened to it. A person traveled all the way to our laboratory to help us figure out what damaged the pump. Did the company have to do that? No. Did they earn my trust and appreciation for helping correct a problem that no one knew existed? Yes. I probably ended up scaring the guy because I was really happy to know of a problem involving a million dollar instrument that I was not aware of. Will I shop there again for my pumping needs? Yes. Will I know that they have my best interests? Yes.

Sometimes, having someone that can teach you just shows you another way to do what you've been doing, but in fewer moves. - Amanda Morrison [more]
