Entrepreneurs have to find the balance between managing their time and providing quality customer service to their clients and customers. There is a huge PR advantage to providing one-on-one interaction for your clients, but as I mentioned, without proper oversight it can be your biggest time-sink.
Think of all the forms of communication we’ve had across the ages: telegrams, letters, telephone, email, text, instant messaging . . . the list goes on and on. As people get busier, we try to find new and more efficient ways to communicate. Especially when it comes to communication between our business and our customer base.
Depending on your industry there might be specific needs for actually having face time or phone time with your clients or customers. So how can you keep from getting sucked into the black hole of wasted time? Continue reading
Today marks the final installment of this 3-part story. I hope you enjoyed Part One, and Part Two. Finally, we discover the purpose of our kind stranger, and the impact he leaves behind. Enjoy!
*********************************
I think that the mind can fast forward sometimes, when someone begins to tell you a story, as it tries to figure out the ending before it is presented. I probably could have woven a hundred different versions of what this man’s life was all about – his purpose on this earth. But there was something in the way that he spoke to me that kept my mind tightly focused on each and every word as his story unfolded.
Nearly two decades ago the man had been an Army Lt. in the Gulf War. He claimed that his greatest accomplishment was not in winning any battles, but in safely bringing all of his soldiers home to their families. Though the war had been short, his time overseas had taken its toll and he retired shortly after the conflict ended. His life’s passion was to be in the service of others, keeping them out of harms way.
We all have special people who have crossed our paths this year. Some touched our lives, our businesses in small ways, and others left an indelible mark, pushing us to new heights. For this post, I wanted to shine the spotlight on each of our heroes to say “Thank you!” for being pivotal in our businesses, and asked –
Who is the one person who has been instrumental to your business success this year, and how did they leave an impact?
My thanks to those of you who responded last week to share the names and stories of those who’ve had the most impact on your business this year. I hope that as you read the comments from our contributors you will reflect on those who have been instrumental to your growth in 2011. If you haven’t taken the opportunity to say thank you to your heroes, now’s the time. I can guarantee it will be the best Christmas gift you could give.
My clients have brought the biggest value to my life and business this year. You know who you are, and I wish to thank you for allowing me the honor of working with you and watching you soar! It has brought me great joy. Thank you! Continue reading
