Have you ever put on a pair of pants and found a five-dollar bill in your pocket? Can you recall a time when someone bought you lunch simply to be nice? Do you remember what it feels like to receive a present “just because?” Well, that’s the type of feeling you provide your customers when you give them more than they are expecting.
