cheapin’ it out–

Saturday, March 15th, 2008

There are two life lessons I learned from my father that really stayed with me: Always buy quality, and– If you are going to do something- do it right the first time.
Cheapin' It Out
Lets reflect on these two points-

Have you ever talked yourself out of buying that expensive, top of the line new gadget and purchased a cheaper one- then a month later having it break and you end up buying the one you wanted to get in the first place? Why didn’t you buy the one you wanted the first go around?

Have you ever gone with the less expensive company thinking that you are getting more bang for your buck? Only to be disappointed with the quality of the end result?

Or for all of the ladies out there- have you ever purchased a piece of clothing at a lower end clothing store- thinking you can get the same look for less- only to wash the item twice before it has holes or fades in color?

These are all perfect examples of why Cheapin’ It out is bad. You have wasted your own and worse yet, your companies time and money on something that you should have done right the first time.

To avoid falling into the Cheapin’ it Out trap surround yourself and your business with people and products you know and trust- even if they cost a little more then the guy down the street. You and your associates will be impressed with the results and in the long run you will save and make money.
