Warm and Fuzzy
Posted on | May 12, 2010 | No Comments
Well, for once I’m not talking about audio coloration. I’m talking about the human connection warm-and-fuzzy. Being a businessman, it’s easy to get caught up in…well…business. And in the electronic world it’s easy to forget that the human connection still means a lot.
I recently heard from a two-time client, who said this: “I’ve liked the work you’ve done for us, but haven’t felt we connected. I’m glad you’re reaching out: [our engineer] likes you tremendously both as a person and an engineer so I suspected you and I just haven’t connected, but would connect well if we ever did. What I would like is a cup of coffee sometime and find out what you think about Kant or kids on swings. I just like to know the people in my close community, and the people I do business with.”
Fair enough. I need to make sure the personal connections are as tight as the sonic ones.
