About

Customer service is number one no matter the product or service, customer service must be considered in every step of the process. If an error is discovered, or some additional mark-up was overlooked, I firmly believe the customer must receive the item they ordered in the manner they discussed with the sales person regardless of the bottom line. As one who has been in sales all my life, I personally enjoy being a part of assisting people get what they want the way they want it. To me, sales is serving others and I've always enjoyed serving the public. When the client is satisfied I am satisfied. Come to think of it, when I've been able to delight a client I bask in their glory when the deal closes so that is how I derive pleasure over and over again from each and every transaction.
