Do you think your customers’ needs never change? Really?
The past two years may have been a unique situation, but change is always happening. To think otherwise isn’t so wise.
Hey, Nice Box
A repeat customer all because the product arrived undamaged. That’s it. That’s all it took.
Some Things Are Better Left Unsaid

“Going above and beyond” is not providing services your customers do not want.
What is “normal?”
All this talk lately of “getting back to normal.” But the world will never be “normal” again. The organizations that are struggling the most are the ones trying to do “business as usual” rather than developing new identities, new business processes, or new procedures.
Not your fault, not your problem? Think again.
