Default If they were my clients originally...

Paul ~

If they were my clients originally and they came to me seeking assistance... I would have a tough time turning them away.

This same scenario played out two years ago, with me, when I moved to another Independent Agency. My previous clientele were not being taken care of, in the way they were used to, with me being there for them.

So eventually I was called upon by a small number of my best clients. Even though I was under a Non-Compete Clause for a year at the time... I chose to take care of their needs.

I then received a letter of intent to file suit for $175,000 in damages from my previous company. It was eventually dropped because I hadn't solicited the business... The business had chosen to leave them. And the other company didn't want, or need, to have a bad PR bout in the local press.

If Person 'A' isn't violating certain agreements with Person 'B'... I would feel somewhat obligated to assist them any way I could.

Hope that helps you somehow... The end-result is the customer or client should always be taken care of in the manner, you yourself, would like to be taken care of. Sometimes, I know, it doesn't turn out that way. But that is also what happens in the Business World too.

Not everything is always fair, or equitable, all of the time.

A sad commentary in itself...

~ Mike
