Tip #419 - Be A Gracious Host
Dear Tip of the Weeker,
This week is Coast Guard Festival in Grand Haven and a huge carnival is set up all along the main street of town. Check out our Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/WhizBangTraining to see some pictures.
We've been enjoying the fun atmosphere and eating "carny food" for lunch, but not loving the extra traffic and lack of parking. Which brings us to this week's Tip...
Festivals are summertime fun for your customers, but can be a pain in the patoot for nearby businesses. Your attitude about your local festival can make it a boost, or a bust.
Here's Bob's take on it...
There you have it - gracious or grumpy, the choice is up to you. Be a gracious host and customers will come back to see you when the frenzy has passed. Grumpy, not so much!
