What is a Customer?
- A customer is the most important person ever to enter this shop or office, in person or by phone or mail.- A customer is not dependent on us; we are dependent on them.
- A customer is not an interruption to us; they are the purpose of our work.
- We are not doing the customer a favour by serving them - they are doing us a favour by giving us the opportunity to serve them.
- A customer is not someone to argue or match wits with. Nobody ever won an argument with a customer.
- A customer is a person who brings their wants to us; and it is our job to handle them profitably, to them and ourselves.
- A customer is an endangered species, of unknown habitat. Look after them, or you may not have many more.

Mural Wins First Place in Professional Murals with Resene
We have been advised that our new Village Mural, painted by local artist Cliff Uepa, has been awarded First Place Professional Mural 2011 Mural Masterpieces Competition, conducted and supported by Resene Paints. This is a great recognition of the Mural painted by Cliff and representing so many aspects of life on the Peninsula and the West. Our thanks to all our sponsors, Auckland Council, Te Atatu RSA, and the Business Association team who supported the project. Also to Corrections for their help in preparing the wall ready for the mural. Well done.
