The
computer business is very competitive. With razor thin
profit margins, we could easily operate at a loss, which
would quickly put us out of business. Most often, the
controlling decision for our potential customer is price;
but what about VALUE?
My father, Ernest Zink, grew up during the depression
and virtually beat the work ethic into me! I can still
hear him say, "When your customer buys something
from you, always give them more than they bargained
for!" Great advice, but rare in practice today. |

Several years ago, I was talking with
my dad about getting out of the computer business. He
said, "Wait a minute, I pay a little more for gas
than you do." I asked why he would do that, and
what that had to do with our discussion? He replied,
"Because I want someone to check my oil and wash
my windows when I get gas. They don’t need as
many customers to stay in business as the people that
sell gas cheaply." Then I understood exactly what
he was talking about. Wise man, that father of mine.
If you understand VALUE and would like to get more
than you bargained for, we would love to develop a long
lasting relationship! |
