It really baffles me how so many people will put off what they can instead of the other way around. Totally agree with you about speed.

At least in my case it was/is so that I also tend to gather all the facts first before responding to the question in that e-mail or even giving status updates. As I learned our male reptile brain is formed that way. What I learned over time (from women?) was by giving status updates as to what's going on it helps establishing a good relationship and having them wait more patiently (while still communicating rapidly). -- @ MyStore - Agree, when the site is down and they aren't responsive, that business relationship is history. ~Marcus @ Mr. Multivar - That makes my blood boil, too.

Some of the most expensive lessons I've learned relate directly to having delayed my response to clients- usually to gather "all" the data and provide a overly detailed response- only to have lost the bid to someone who "shot from the hip". Thanks, Marcus. Another great post that really hits close to home.

What’s worse is when you are the customer and the business owner stops, picks up the phone, and begins a whole new transaction." That is the worst for me. It makes my blood boil when the phone is put first. Responding quickly and over delivering to paying customers works well for me. “There’s nothing worse than being in the middle of a business transaction in person with someone and having the phone ring to interrupt.
