Business Vs. Loyalty

Loyalty or Business?

Are you always just about the bottom line or is there some leeway with the profit margin when it comes to someone that has helped you get where you are today?

If someone you know introduced you to someone that buys something or makes you some money do you do a kick down even when not asked to or do you just profit from the good fortune?

Always kick down. Loyalty is always rewarded.

Loyalty for me. I think I have shown this to be the case already in my working environment.

Like someone already said. You'll be rewarded for being loyal.

Our whole business model with GTS revolves around recurring business. Hence the reason we throw dinners, buy drinks and try to appease our buyers at every opportunity we get.

It's a lot easier to keep a good client than find a new one.

A healthy mix of both is good, and knowing when to do one or the other is important as well I would say.

This should be the quote of the day, it's so ridiculously true.

Do your best to keep clients happy and they'll keep coming back. Better yet, they'll bring their friends with.

loyalty- more profits later on.

Its harder to get a new customer than to keep an old one.

Nice to see people into loyalty, yet not much talk about the proverbial kick down.

Anyone who wants to learn about good business practices and understand the true value of loyalty should go buy Good to Great. It was probably the best book I have ever read in my life.

Loyalty, hands down.

Loyalty *is* business. It's like stashing money away in a bank or an investment. The returns over time are usually greater than the initial investment.

Of course, it's just as easy to misplace loyalty as it is to invest in the wrong thing.

Everyone says loyalty, and I agree, though for many people / most I have encountered loyalty means shit all. It's whatever brings them money, which doesn't necessarily mean loyalty. Sucks a goat's cock.

Cheers,
Matt

Every paysite owner should think the same way!

Loyalty, you give it, you get it. It is the core to any good relationship. Business, or other.
