My business philosophy is similar to my life philosophy, "Treat others as you would want to be treated". It is important to be able to articulate your ideas and make yourself clear. Then it is important to make sure the one you are speaking to hears and understands exactly what you are trying to say. This comes with good speaking skills and good listening skills. I believe if you are investing your time helping others then you will be recognized and rewarded for it. Always try to give more than what is expected and you will be remembered. When you are remembered for doing a good job, your reputation will grow as well as your business in North Carolina. I guess the best philosophy to live by and conduct business by is the Scout Oath and the Scout Law.
