They are all too busy now shopping on the Gardiners website cos they realised they actually really do still need a pole even with the extra tenner ? I'm just being a wind up have a good evening lads and lasses
The guy is a supplier, Like I said, I don't care about delivery cost. What bothers me is his cockiness.
As someone who owns a business and is involved in running some other businesses aswell personally I have respect that Alex or any other person who owns a business or company has the honesty to say why they are doing something. Sensitive people will probably see it as bad or cocky or arrogant and maybe for those people kid gloves should be used and a pink fluffy explanation given so they are not offended! But my preference is honesty and that's what his feedback was in the same way many of us use prices to control our workload or the quantity people order of the product we supply. If you think his explanation was arrogant and upset you dont ever study how massive companies price there products differently in different areas to try and put off customers from certain social classes! That will really upset ya lol
jesus!some people are easily offended!come on mate! you dont look young enough to be part of the "snowflake" generation!?
I think you are wrong Alex is or was a window cleaner and did or does still keep his hand in and his dad was a window cleaner before him, he set the company up to provide what we have today in this industry, the best poles and brushes
I know exactly how big businesses price thank you very much. I don't see Ionics or streamline ETC spouting off ? I don't remember saying how upset I was either ? No pink fluffy gloves required here sunshine. Where I come from its called respect and respecting your customers even if you wish to bin them or put them off, What Alex said was very unprofessional in my book . I've been at this game a long time and I have made a very good living . I have employed sub contracted downsized sold work brought work at every point I/ we have treated people with respected. I'm now on the home straight to a well earned sunny retirement in a few years, being rude and arrogant especially to our commercial clients no matter how big or small didn't get me where our businesses is today. Alex is very good businessman and sells a very good product but getting involved in on line chats about losing customers is silly...... Gerald Ratner springs to mined with those famous words I sell ****, but you was probably still in nappies when he said that. He lost his business over night, I'm sure your get your hat and pen and a few sweets on your next order. Just love your utter brown noseing
Ha ha I always find it funny people that need to tell you how well they are doing and how close they are to retiring to try and make a point out a suppliers pricing ? but well done!! And if you regard agreeing with someone being honest about his pricing strategy brown nosing good for you I'm a bit beyond having to say that sort of thing to other grown adults on the internet but if it makes you feel better good for you ?
