"We don't do that"

Thinking up new ways of doing business is the key to success! Thinking outside of the business box is going to get you a lot further in any industry.

For example, I called a company in another state asking for recycling of computers and they said “we don’t do that” and it got me thinking… Why not? I got onto Google (my best friend) and found a place in their area that recycles computers and told them to take them there. It was simple and I saved our company money because they didn’t hire the company themselves and add a bit of commission on top. If only they had said “Hey we can do that for you!” they could have boosted up the job a little more and made a little profit.

A key element to making money is saying “”Yes we can help you!” despite if it is something that is outside of the box of moving.

I will be glad to help you! I can take care of anything you need! Make it happen because if you don’t know how to do something, Google will tell you.

A little insight in the life of business.

Take care,
~ Joy

Moral

It’s hard enough knowing that business is down in any industry. It’s a tough economy for all companies. People are already in fear of loosing their jobs all over the United States. Moral is extremely important in these times where not only are companies struggling, but the people who run them as well.

When someone steps up to the plate and works with all their might to bring in extra business or goes the extra mile even when times are down, remember that even though it won’t change the entire economy or situation of the company, it is still “good enough”.

Telling people that it is not good enough all the time makes them start to give up. Keep your moral high and people will keep trying to bring in all they can to help.

We are all good enough!


Keep up the good work. ~ Joy

Get out of your box and step up to the plate!

Let’s talk about what makes you a good person to work with. It’s not that you come in everyday to do your job… anyone can do that. So what makes you so special? Do you go out of your way to help people? Or are you one of those people that have a tendency to say to people “It’s not my job” on a daily basis?

You may not think it matters, but it does. It actually makes a difference if you go out of your way to help someone. The most memorable and admirable people that I work with are not the people that say “This can’t be done” or “That’s not my job” but rather, it’s the people that say “I am not sure how to do that, but heck I will give it a shot and see what I find out!”

People who actually want to help and show it are respected above others and people who actually try to learn and try to figure things out are the best employees. It’s not about what we can’t do or don’t have time for. It’s about working to making things happen.

Here’s to making it happen!

Cheers!

This is Joy, have a kick butt weekend!

Rocking out the 09/09/09 !

So you think you have it rough? You come into work everyday and you bust your tail to get your job done with a smile on your face. Are you appreciated? I think that it is so important to show the people you work with that you truly appreciate them for what they do.

Everyone has a different function in most industries and all of those functions are pretty darn important. We all have a purpose. You may think that some people do less than you, but do you really know what they do? You probably don’t understand half of their job function so it is easy to assume that they only do the specific things that you know they do.

Whoa that was a tongue twister!

I guess what I am saying is that if you are judging someone else… take the time to learn about what they do and get to know them as a person. You may find that they actually do more than you think. I have found that once I have learned what others actually do around here, I admire and respect them more.

Thanks to everyone who kicks moving butt around here!

Rocking out the 09/09/09 ….. Peace!

The Whole Company is Customer Service.

If you are a billing clerk or you are a receptionist.... whatever it is that you do, if you have any contact with a customer then you are now customer service. Not only are you now customer service, but you are now sales. Why is it important to the company that you know this?

Well it may not be in your job description to actually do customer service, but it is an obligation to your job. If you do not provide key customer service even when someone accidentally transfers a customer to your phone, then you are simply not earning the money you are being paid.

Why this topic? Because it matters, that's why. If a customer is transferred 3 times before someone can help them, then it's not a small problem... it suddenly become a company wide problem. Customers are our industry and they come first and without our customers we are nothing.

We are all customer service.

If someone calls and they need help, get them to the right place even if you have to run around the office asking people questions in order to figure out what the right place is. We value our customers and when we show them that we value them, they feel as important as they are.

And that matters! Keep Keeping Em Happy!

Does your attitude affect your job?

I come into work every day and I try to put on a smile and show that I am happy to be here. When I answer the phone I try to do it with a smile even if I am flustered, overwhelmed and the darn phone keeps interrupting me while I am trying to get my job done.

Some days are better than others, but do the bad days really affect your job? I think that the personality that you bring to the table at work highly affects not only the way your customers see you, but it also affects the way your fellow employees see you.

Attitude is a choice. You can come into work angry at everyone around you and full of a bad attitude, but in this economy I think that’s is the worst way to go if you want to secure your position at your job.

The reality is that you may not be happy in your job. You may not be making the amount that you want or perhaps you are just generally hacked off at the world around you. Your happiness or lack thereof is not going to change all by itself. It’s up to you to make the changes in your life to ensure your own happiness.

Don’t come storming into your place of work without remembering that others have to deal with your attitude. If you really love your job, remember your pleasantries and remember that your day could be worse… You could have gotten a flat tire this morning.

Attitude is key when it comes to a company that needs everyone within it providing the best customer service. Bring a good attitude to the plate and perhaps things will get better for you…. Otherwise a happier person may just take your job.

It’s an employer’s world now. Hang your problems outside the front door before you walk in… it’s not like they won’t be there when you leave again each day.

This is ~ Joy - Giving the smack down on your bad attitude!
