A marketing expert
mocked a florist
for having a “No Photos” sign.
He believed the issue
was other florists
stealing her designs.
I suspect the issue
was every teenager in the neighborhood
filming TikTok videos
in the florist shop,
prohibiting anyone
from shopping there.
We all make assumptions
regarding other people’s motivations.
That’s human.
But, before we make
business decisions
based on these assumptions,
we should ask the person
what their TRUE reason
for doing something was.
Assumptions are often wrong.
Verify them
before you act.
