❌ Citation de Sam Walton (Walmart)

Sam Walton, founder of $418,000,000,000 mega business Walmart said this to a group of trainees: “Believe me, the customer never comes back!” "I'm the guy who goes to a restaurant, sits at the table and waits patiently, while the waiter does everything but write down my order. I'm the guy who goes to a store and waits quietly, while the salesmen finish their personal conversations. I’m the guy who walks into a gas station and never uses his horn, but patiently waits for the employee to finish reading his newspaper. I'm the man who explains his desperate urgency for one piece, but doesn't complain that he only gets it after three weeks of waiting. I'm the guy that, when he enters a commercial establishment, seems to be asking for a favor, begging for a smile or just hoping to be noticed. You must be thinking I'm a quiet, patient, never troublesome type... Get fooled. Do you know who I am? I am the customer who never returns! I love seeing millions spent annually on all sorts of ads to get me back to your company. Because when I first went there, all they should have done was just a little, simple and inexpensive kindness: treat me with a little more courtesy. Theres only one boss: THE CUSTOMER. And he can fire everyone in the company from the president to the janitor, simply taking their money to spend elsewhere. " Sam Walton understood that in any successful business, the customer must take first priority
