This is an update on my last post on the subject. That post was from 2005. We went ahead and held another Cust. Apprec. night this year, mid June. With a little more experience, we went into it knowing a little more what to expect. For instance, we had less staff. Last year, too many employees made for too few tips. One thing we changed was the letter. It’s kind of awkward standing at someone’s door as they hastilly read the letter and look at you and ask : “so, how much do I owe you?” I ditched the letter a couple hours into it. I think we even embarrassed one regular that seemed like he couldn’t read. Other than making that change midstream, things went much smoother the second time around. And yes, we are still the Kings of Customer Appreciation around here, and all of our customers know it. How can you go wrong with that?
