Taking Action On Customer Complaints

Folks in northern climates
love to complain
about the snow.

Now, that the snow
is going away,
due to climate change,
people from elsewhere
assume we’ll be happy about that.

We aren’t happy
about that.
At all.

Because the snow
benefits our crops.

Without the slow release
of moisture
from snow packs,
our farmers face drought.

The snow and the cold
is also necessary
for our local plants, insects,
animals, birds
and many, many industries.

Don’t assume
complaints
about an aspect of your products
mean those customers or prospects
want that aspect removed or changed.

Humans are illogical beings.
It might not mean
that at all.

Investigate
before you take action.

Try Before Starting

A buddy of mine
impulsively bought a farm.

No one in her immediate family,
including herself,
had ever farmed.
Heck, they didn’t even
have a garden
prior to the purchase.

But my friend
had watched a gazillion
videos posted by influencers
about farming
or homesteading.
She thought it looked easy.

Farming isn’t easy
and it isn’t anything
like what the influencers
show.
Within days
my buddy was regretting her decision.

Work in an industry
before starting a business
in it.

Try a lifestyle
before adapting it fully.

This will increase
your odds of success
and boost your happiness levels.
