Best in Redding? Really?
Record Searchlight
Anyone else find that the Record Searchlight’s “Best in Redding” insert on Sunday a little self serving?
Looking over the winners and runners up it’s obvious that some are there because they rallied their employees to submit their work place. Nothing independent or unbiased about it. Not exactly a clean poll …. Pollster guru Harris can be heard rolling in his grave.
The Searchlight then used the results to sell ad space back to the “winners”.
Our customers, through an independent survey company, rate us every day. We have no control over the results…. nada, zippo, no way, forgetaboutit …no control.
They have consistently rated their experience with us as satisfied to very satisfied ..98% of the time …
It’s because of our roles of being Trusted Advisors, Skilled Negotiators; and Expert Facilitators …professional service focused solely on our clients…
We couldn’t bribe them with an ad or their names in the paper …can’t do it …and wouldn’t want to.
Status Quo is Status Recedo
Status Quo Means Decline
Interestingly there is no direct Latin word for backwards or reverse. Retreat in Latin is “Recedo”, which is what happens to a business that tries to not lose ground. They retreat and eventually are “Status Mortuus”.
The current death rate of companies are escalating. Most of them ( if not all of them) because they tried to not lose ..instead of striving to win, change, etc.
They spend so much time reassuring everyone that everything is ok ..”Status Quo” …that they ..”Status Recedo”.
They lose the opportunity for change, creativity and growth.
