		<description>Totally agree with what your saying here, businesses are built on good customer service and core values. Companies would have more success if they focused more on customer service and the customer experience. I loved what Tony Hsieh done for Zappos, he focuses on company culture and customer service which has worked excellent for them.</description>

		<description>You know something, that is kind of how I have built my businesses over the years.  I always look at my customers and clients and think about how I would feel if I were on the other end.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I think that is why my customers are fairly loyal to me and value the opinions I offer them.  &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;I think every company can learn a lot by stepping back and not looking at the immediate bottom line decision of yes or no and seeing the way that a no now might equal many, many yeses down the road and a more valuable relationship built on trust and mutual consideration.</description>
