Last week two people sent me emails asking for help. I responded, “Sure, give me a call tomorrow and I can help you.” Both said they’d call me the next day. It’s been a few weeks and I haven’t heard from either of them. I know things come up, but think about the message they’re sending. They’re being disrespectful and more importantly they’re showing that they’re unreliable. My friends, nobody wants to do business with unreliable people. If you tell someone you’re going to do something and you forget, call and apologize, but please don’t tell them how busy you are. Do you know anyone who isn’t busy? Most people will understand and give you a second chance.
