Loyalty

This past week we focused on loyalty. What does it mean to be loyal? To whom are we loyal? It is so important that we are loyal to our co-workers, employees, boss, and clients. We have to look at our responsibilities and magnify our determination to work hard and effectively. As I put myself in each of these positions, I would want to receive loyalty from all ends. Imagine a company that was trustworthy and you know that the company wouldn't let you down. There would be no second thought of returning, it would be an obvious decision to go back to them again and again.
We had a guess speaker, Neal Cambell. He is the owner of Idaho White Glove. He spoke with us about how they "advertise" his company. He said that they don't spend any money on advertisement except the ad in the news paper every once in a while. The real way they are able to get more clients is through word or mouth. How is that possible to achieve that without advertising your company? It is because those would hire you know that you are trustworthy, easy to work with, you will work hard and bend over backwards to get the job done and then some, and they know that you will be consistent in your ability to get the job done. Neal Cambell focused on the concept of doing good quality work and how that separates them from other competing companies.
Hearing from  Neal Cambell was very refreshing. He said that the biggest misconception about starting a business is that you need everything to be perfect before starting it. He said that when you start your business and throughout the next few months is when you learn the most about what your business is all about and what the majority of its potential can be. He said to not be afraid to make mistakes while starting a business because that's how you will learn the most. For me, that was so good to hear because I think that would be a huge reason I wouldn't start a business, I would think it needs to be perfect before starting. Now I know that I just need to do everything I can to prepare and then just go for it, expecting failure and a massive learning curve. I appreciated Neal Cambells discussion.
