More quotes by Jeffrey Gitomer
Trust is not a request, Trust is earned.
Jeffrey Gitomer
The best way to do business with a liar is confront them with the truth. Tell them that you do business as a partner. If your lying customer still can't see the light, tell him that you may not be the best choice for business, and that you think you have someone that can serve him better. Then, refer him to the competitor that you hate the most.
Jeffrey Gitomer
Loyalty is earned with friendliness, responsiveness, ease of doing business, fair value, and the good feeling customers get when they call you, visit you, or interact with you.
Jeffrey Gitomer
Negative people are worse than negative occurrences. The argument is over in ten minutes - the person may hang around for years.

Jeffrey Gitomer
Trust is not an important element it is THE important element in any LONG TERM success with anyone or any company.
Jeffrey Gitomer
Being honest when you're dealing with others is easier to do because your honesty is on the table for all to view...Being honest with yourself is more difficult because you only have to justify it in private where no one can see it.
Jeffrey Gitomer
Be friendly first. Service starts with a friendly person with a friendly smile, who offers friendly words first. How friendly are you?
Jeffrey Gitomer
Satisfied customers are apathetic. Loyal customers will be your advocate.
Jeffrey Gitomer
You don't earn loyalty in a day. You earn loyalty day-by-day.
Jeffrey Gitomer
Home Depot knows 'the more they help, the more they sell'-oh by the way, for the 'bottom liners' who disagree-it's also vice-versa.
Jeffrey Gitomer
You can't be a winner if you're a whiner...wiener.
Jeffrey Gitomer
Mistakes in judgment are the best teachers in the world, and if you choose to learn from them then you will begin to trust yourself and understand that, correct or incorrect you were decisive and moved on.
Jeffrey Gitomer
I put myself in front of people who can say yes to me, and I deliver value first.
Jeffrey Gitomer
Attitude, humor and action (persistence) will whip fears and rejection. Fear of failure doesn't exist, if you believe it doesn't.
Jeffrey Gitomer
If you own the problem, you own the customer. If you lose the problem, you lose the customer. It's that simple.
