So yeah, it’s Labor Day today and when I spotted this image, I just knew I had to share this particular quote that I read in Todd Johnson’s book.
Have you ever known anyone that’s gifted in what they do, and you had to beg them to give you a bid or show up for work?
I have. After renovating two homes and working in an old home salvage business, I’ve known a few.
P.S. Many thanks to Marcelo Jhonas for allowing me to share and slightly modify his image.
This really nails it!! It’s sad when you find someone good at what they do, you practically beg them to work for you and then they don’t show up, or they’re booked for the next five years.
If I find someone who is good at what they do, I am happy to wait as long as they communicate. I can’t stand when you call someone and they just don’t return your calls…..ever. I would rather them say they are just too busy or they just don’t want to do it. So many times they just don’t call back……..and then I have to tell people they don’t return calls. Bad for their reputation and not good business.
