Hi guys.. I just couldn't think of a more apt word to describe a business owner actually slamming the door of business opportunities right in their own face. Let me explain..I was at the local fish market in surulere and it was raining cats and dogs And you know what happens when it rains in local markets.. It was a real mess and the floods were ankle high. And there was this fishmonger apparently and intentionally blocking off the only way commuters could pass without having to deep their ankles in the messy water!

She was hell bent that was her space and no one could pass. I found that really sad and thought to myself. But after the rain comes the sunshine and she would magically want all and sundry to patronize her even after the unbelievably shabby treatment she meted to prospective customers at the time when they needed kindness shown to them

Lesson here: people never forget the way they were treated and this applies to all scales of business big or small.. Lets learn people..

They scream, they curse, all at the top of their voices, unapologetically may I add First of all, Note to self.. DON'T TAKE IT PERSONAL! Because guess what, your client is not separating you from the entity you work for. Your Client is angry with the company you work for and not you directly. I know it can be hard to not let the insults and curses rub you the wrong way, but with practice and patience, you'll be able to remain cool while doing your best to convince your client that issues will be resolved in the most professional manner Steps to help you stay calm and professional Keep your cool Listen attentively and don'...
