Support Family-Run Businesses by i80 Equipment

When you are thinking about becoming a client of a particular company, look at their employees. Typically a company which operates successfully and profitably is doing so because they have managed to create a work environment that motivates their employees to be top performers and to take pride in their work.

Start by looking at how long the company has been in operation and how long each employee has been with the company. Company staff retention is a sure sign of client retention.

You might even want to pay attention to their job titles. Making a senior procurement decision with a Customer Service Rep. is a different story than negotiating your purchase with a Sales Consultant.

How a company treats their employees is a fairly good gauge of how it will treat its client-base. A company, which perceives their staff to be their strongest asset, invests in their employees, and in doing so turns each and every employee into a genuine spokesperson for their company. Employees, who feel well-treated by their company, are genuinely proud to work for the company, and this will show in their attitude and service.

It’s for this reason that some customers seek out the smaller family-run businesses. Small businesses do not have the resources to provide a mediocre service because their client-base would dwindle down too rapidly. They need to run top ship-shape operations or they’ll be run out of business, especially in these economic times where every dime spent counts.

It’s fairly easy to tell, at first contact with a company, whether or not the business is run by a team of passionate individuals who love what they do. You’ll hear their enthusiasm and their knowledge base in their answers, and even in their questions. Employees, who believe in the products or services they are promoting, won’t let their customers make the wrong choices. They know they are the experts in their domain, and that if they ask enough questions, they can ensure that their clients leave satisfied customers, in the short-term and in the long-term.

Family-run operations suggest that you’ll be working with someone who knows the ins-and-outs of all aspects of your dealings with them. The bigger the corporate structure, the more likely that you’ll need to work with 3 or 4 people to conduct your business, and the more likely that you’ll be one of the hundreds of people that they speak to in a month.
