Touching Our Clients
I work part time at a web design company. About 90% of our clients are in the Real Estate industry. In addition to designing and building their sites, I oftentimes end up writing or, more-often, rewriting their copy* since what they’ve submitted is a) a grammatical mess or b) makes absolutely no sense and makes them sound like a mentally challenged third grader. An example:
“Whoever we touch we will do so in a professional manner, completely open and accountable to our client to serve their needs in the manner they deserve.”
It should be noted that the man who wrote this not only went to business school, but has also been very successful; he started a $60 million dollar textile company with 200 employees.
I feel like this is the only way to adequately express how this makes me feel:
* The one exception to this rule is Matt Sweeney of Rich Kids Real Estate. He is one of the few real estate agents I’ve met who can form a coherent sentence, has some idea how the internet works, and seems like a genuinely good guy. If you’re in the market for real estate in the LA area, I’d definitely recommend checking out his website and then giving him a call.
