Bigtoe Posted December 20, 2010 Share Posted December 20, 2010 She's got skin like sandpaper, but you'd splatter it with a bit of moisturiser Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley Posted December 21, 2010 Author Share Posted December 21, 2010 I think she definitely stood out. But was looking a bit old now. Crows feet and all that. 7/10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
no balls Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 I think she definitely stood out. But was looking a bit old now. Crows feet and all that. 7/10. But birds with botox usually look a little silly really. Fair play to her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mounts Kipper Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 (edited) Not sure sending clients present influences one way or other, if your product, service,quality and price is good they will continue to purchase regardless of whether you send a gift or not. In fact if I received a really nice gift would think supplier is making too much money from me. Edited December 21, 2010 by Mounts Kipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiley Posted December 22, 2010 Author Share Posted December 22, 2010 correct Agree. But its the thought that counts. Got a really nice CK leather wallet in case from a supplier yesterday. Pretty chuffed as my other wallet is falling to bits. Noticed the moths escaping through the cracks in the fake leather! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jules_darby Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 We get our best clients Christmas presents if they are allowed to accept them, ranging from taking them to sporting events or to a nice restaurant (which allows for further selling and networking) to simple gifts such as bottles of wine and hampers etc. I receive a couple of bits off suppliers too and when I do the only thing I think is that it's a nice touch - no more, no less. It's the way business is done I also give presents to the concierge and caretaker of our building - don't expect anything back, it's a simple show of appreciation Don't see how anyone could have an issue with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whites man Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 Everything at our place is pooled and raffled off at Christmas. Last year I won a case of Strongbow which makes you think who on earth thought that was a suitable business gift? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
