You knew this.

We all “know” this.. in theory.

I say in theory because I hear people talk all the time about how important relationships are, but I don’t see the actions to back the words.

In essence, we’re talking the talk, but are we walking the walk?

We’re busy, things are going on, and sometimes, maintaining those relationships can, reaching out to our clients or customers gets pushed down a little further down on our to do list.

We think about sending that card to congratulate our client on their award and some how, some way, it moves right off our never ending to-do list.

But there are people that are walking that walk every day.

And people are noticing.

I urge you to head over to Josh Perrington’s blog and read his latest post about “our” place.  Only it’s not just “our” place.  (He business cheats on me with the likes of some other guys.  Clearly, he has a few issues.  But don’t hold that against him.  And I’m pretty sure he’s never referred to it as “our” place.  But when Josh and I have ideas to pour over?  That’s where we go.  Short of the families getting together, I’ve never met him anywhere else!)

It’s a post that, while I wanted to expound upon, I can’t seem to find the words to say it any better than he did.

It shows the value of excellent customer service while tugging on the heart strings.

And makes me very excited about #MargaritaMondays.

(Read the post and you’ll understand.)

When walking that walk?

Just remember…

Investing involves more than just money.

The return is greater than you will ever expect.
