Hello From A Supplier

[TheLairdGuy]

Hello Everybody!

I work for Laird Plastics and I've been browsing through a couple threads in the past few days. It's really impressive how much great advice is being given, and I thought as a supplier I might be able to offer additional perspective and experience since I work with so many Sign Shops and Printers personally.

My intent here is to be a free resource you can use; I'm more than happy to share best practices some of my customers use, answer product knowledge or application questions, etc.

Hope everything is well, and thanks for the welcome!

Thanks! I work in our Detroit office, so I can't say I know Jamie personally. Hopefully he's been able to be a quality supplier for you.

That's great! Ever since my first day I've come to learn how important service is, and it makes me feel good about the company I work for when I hear stuff back from customers like you. Thanks for sharing.

I'm from Florida originally, and it snowed a few days ago here in Michigan. Needless to say I'm jealous of your california location! Hopefully the waves are good

Awesome! I don't know Joe personally either, but if you deal with him often he must be doing a great job. Thanks for the welcome Fire!

I can absolutely appreciate that. Just recently I had a terrible experience with customer service myself when buying a suit, and it's really hard to get that taste out of your mouth afterwards. It's one of the reasons I decided to get involved in this online community; the hard part as a supplier is getting reliable and honest feedback about where we can improve and where we've really messed up. My hope is that because the majority of people on here probably aren't MY specific customers, they can give me some really good feedback on what they want out their supplier reps and I can transfer that into my activities here.
