Sometimes Getting a Bloody Nose Can be a Good Thing
Not literally of course, but every now and then we overlook the obvious or we get too comfortable with the status quo. When it happens, it’s how a company or an individual reacts that defines who they are or where the future leads. At least you hope so.

Have you ever noticed that most companies fall into three camps when it comes to change?

I know that selling is often seen as a cold and calculating transaction, but that’s not my style. The goal for me is create new friends and lasting friendships with our customers.
