It’s Called Karma Baby
November 6th, 2006 by Sophie WegatCustomers Are Always blog has a great post Enthusiasm, Spirituality, and Karma in Business. I particularly like this quote:
Yes, I truly believe that there is such a thing as karma in business. What you give comes back to you tenfold.
I couldn’t agree more. A number of years ago I did a blog design for a friend, free of charge. Another acquaintance noticed me for that design and recently I have started doing some web design and blog designs for them. Without doing that first site I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have been recognised by my new client.
I never did the original blog design expecting anything but sometimes what goes around comes around.

Yup I’m quite the believer in “what goes around comes around…” - though I tend not to work for free these days mostly because it never lead to more (paying) business from the client.

Totally agree Daz, in fact that should be a post in itself. This was a friend so a slightly different situation.

Whenever things are down in any aspect of my life I try to stay positive, because it is my belief that everything evens out in the end. In business it’s helped me stay focused on building my business and relationships.

I think that’s the best attitude to have Keith.
