Well, we’ll finally back in town. Colorado was a blast – cold weather and some snow. Just what some of us from a warm climate like Texas desperately need! And I guess we brought some of that cold weather with us too. Last weekend’s high temperatures were in the 30s – cold for Houston. But in true Texas fashion, today’s high is 80. Yikes!

Recently I’ve been thinking quite a bit about customer relationships – and how hard it can be to get it right by being authentic and treating customers with the respect they deserve. My last blog post, “What About ME?“, asks why we reserve the best deals for NEW customers; without treating existing customers better. I’d love to hear YOUR thoughts.
