Are business owners really that dumb to make enemies of us
So a separate journey into town is made , I get there, the guy at the bar looks confused when I say i have an appointment with (owners name) he gets on the phone to him and tells me he is with a supplier if I walk around for an hour and come back he should be free. I suggest that I am the one with a confirmed appointment so maybe he should end the meeting hes in and see me now . No I am to walk round for an hour , I ask for the phone and advise the owner that I too am a business owner who doesnt appreciate his time disrespected, I am far too busy to just walk around for an hour waiting until he decides he has time to keep an pre confirmed appointment..... I dont receive even an apology, its an 'ahh well ' sort of response , made me chuckle
Anyway moral is, if I can do good for his restaurant , I can do a load better for his competitors (some of which I am already working with) and I can do some damage to his online reputation (Ive eaten there so I can leave genuine reviews and social media content)
Now Im not going to cos as I say its a tad tongue in cheek and I havent got the time to do it even if I wanted to, but I will happily leave him to some other marketer to work with, its his loss
Moral is, dont take any crap out there, respect yourself your time and your business, dumbasses arent worth working with
