Well, I'm on the move again. I told you all that I was moving from Coleman dealer to another. This was so that my wife and I could move to the town both of our parents live. That was the start of April.
Well....that place just wasn't going to work out. I won't get into details (so as not to slander my about to be former employer).
I have decided to join the yahoo's like Steve and sell Hydro-Pool. Steve will now have an ally on the board to spread the word on the Hydro-Pool way.
Stuart, nice to see you are also back.

Hey buddy! Still can't talk you into moving this far huh? I still need some good salespeople...Problem I'm having is finding people that have our core values and sell at the same time.
Many salespeople think that they need to "tell little white lies to sell". I gotta tell you that I run into a lot of those!
Could also use a good sales manager.
Take care of my buddy Steve up there. Make sure the coffee is hot when he stops by!!

Boy if I was young enough to start over, Colorado has some beautiful riding scenery. My banker told me twenty years ago, I was honest to a fault, but that was the way I was programed. I know what you mean, It is hard to find good people with principles and moral values. Worse yet, is being in this business and being honest with shopperswho think everyone is a liar.
The price is the honest price, if I change it, that means I would have lied to you to begin with.
I have come to learn that shoppers are just as bad as those sales persons that "tell little white lies to sell." You want to be honest and help all of your shoppers, but some of them, you just gotta let walk like the guy last month that started his first post with "LIE", to get the best price, then there is - Orishi bin lying - that claimes "CASH IS KING". He is so full of it, you can read him like a book, he is a phoney as a 3 dollar bill, chances are he couldn't put enough cash together to cut a deal on a softub.
Negotiators, they are just out for the challenge and end up getting the short end of the stick, because they end up buying elswhere and still believe they were schrewed when they got screwed by that slick talking con guy that was here today and gone tomarrow.
Good sales people are really hard to find. I know what your tlaking about. I'm getting to the point now, where good shoppers are hard to find. It seems nobody wants to believe a good and fair price is a good and fair price unles they can get a lower price than the other guy.
It's getting tough to find good, honest salespeople that can do a good, honest job for people who are looking for a good, honest business to buy from. Remember when things were done on a hand shake.
Good people THEY ARE HARD TO FIND :-/

How funny is that... I grew up in Whitby. Where's the store in Whitby? I used to live on the west end near the White Oaks apartments.
