First Class Customer Service! Going above and beyond what is expected of you. Doing right by your Client… EVERYTIME, not just when you feel like it, have time for, or remember to. Also, that does NOT mean to throw useless marketing gimmicks or trinkets at them. ---

Following a routine over time will guarantee success. Not sure that’s what you are looking for though. But if a routine is followed, no matter what the task over time you will become better if not the best at it = success. Can’t wait to see the connection between HI & acupuncture… ---

> [@ccurrins](#): > > There is nothing that can “Guarantee” success. Ah have to agree with this… No guarantees in life. But if I am going to strive for it the first thing that came to mind was INTERNACHI !!! ---

You get bonus points Kenneth! haha. Of course nothing is fully guaranteed in business, but without this you are guaranteed to NOT have business. Answer will be revealed on Wednesday. We are looking for the best answer to this question…for those who have looked at the website by name googling, Acupuncture is not the answer but there are certainly hints there.
