How this five letter word built this country strong!
With the world in such a tailspin how do we bring back any normalcy to our country?
From the federal government to our bankers to our financial advisers just who can your trust nowadays?
Just look at A-Rod and Phelps our sports hero’s and even they have let us down again. At one point will this all stop and we can start trusting again.
I always thought that contractors had a trust issue but not anymore. I believe we are the only ones you can trust in today’s world.
See contractors have built a life time of trust with there clients. We clearly understand the value of trust and honesty to build great companies.
When you look at all the suppliers and distributors and subcontractors or our employees we work with everyday then you can understand why the word trust means so much to a contractor.
Remember when a good hand shake and trust could buy you the world. Growing up dad always said a firm hand shake and look them straight in the eye was worth any contract you could have signed.
Deals have been made around the world on a hand shake. So how did we get to this mess? True family values are not taught like they were when we grew up.
I don’t think until we get back or understand how to trust again will America be able to rebuild to the greatest nation we once all new and loved.
When a company sends out bad peanut butter to our kids school programs you wonder when we can trust again.
At what point do we say no to the all mighty dollar and instead say yes to building trust instead?
You can move the world with trust!
Just think how many people or companies that you come into contact with everyday? You have split seconds to gain the trust with these people.
Do you get that gut feeling when you have that doubt of trust with someone? Come on you have felt it before right? Maybe you call it instinct? But you do feel something!
So at what point in our lives are we going to start to trust again. And who will be first? I think it needs to be the closest people around you first. Maybe your banker can be next? I mean if you can’t trust your banker then who can you trust? Remember that saying?
Well ,I think you can start with your local contractor! Yes, I maybe a little over the top but I have a lot of contractors that I trust.
My tribe of contractors will enjoy this post and they all know who they are.
Happy Selling
