Are you a detailed oriented person?

What do your customers think of you and your business?  Many times what business owners think and what their customers think are polar opposite.  You think that your products are great, your customer service is great, etc.  While the customer might agree with both of those, they more than likely remember the TINY things that went wrong.  You were a day late answering an email, you were 15 minutes late to a meeting, or as you see in this picture you cut corners.

This picture is from a large established business.  While it’s not the end of the world, it does tell a story.  Here’s a case where a business attempted to do the right thing.  They realized the bathroom needed a coat of paint but then they cut corners.  What is more surprising to me is that the owners of this company commonly use this bathroom.  How can you see this and not fix it THAT DAY?  To me and many other people this shows a lack of attention to details. I see this and think, are you cutting corners or ignoring details anywhere else in your business.  We all work hard to build a great product and service, let’s not let a small detail like this derail all of your hard work
