CHs are paying you to help them come up with a name for their business. Not criticize them for making your job too hard. Get a grip. Be respectful. Be professional. Don’t like the contest? DON’T PARTICIPATE.
Exactly! I second that!
Nicely said, Kim. I third that!
I know most of you know the way business works, but for those who don’t - the customer is always right. Period. You tell them they’re wrong and make them feel like ****? They take their business elsewhere. It’s as simple as that.
I so agree, the negativity is hard to take.
Uhhh, yeah, me too.
lol, ummmm ok …I agree with her but you gotta admit , sometimes the winning name leaves you scratching your head . I work in retail & NO , THE CUSTOMER ISN’T ALWAYS RIGHT KIM . but in this case , yeah I agree with you .
It…you nailed it. …I always wondered if anyone else saw it this way
Thinking that sucking up and sending private PM’s to the CH giving him well wishes, should’t be allowed either!! Didn’t think that happened till a CH recently said that he had gotten some, I could see maybe through an entry comment saying something like … and best of luck, or whatever, but to send a separate PM or even a separate comment on the entry solely to say “hey look at me” with the guise of well wishes should be looked into< Just my personal opinion and feelings.
That goes both ways. …these last few weeks has been a roller coaster of ups and downs. I’ve received more than several pms from different ones- some good- some not so good…I do out of courtesy say thank you and good luck (if it was a positive) pm I received. Honestly I feel it’s returning respect and not meant to gain advantages. Just how I see it.
Yes that to me is all good especially if its a response )))) I’m more talking about the out of the blue pm’s
Yes a point positively taken. …I see what you are saying😎
I didn’t know that this stuff happens.
I am even more surprised though on WHY it would happen at all? I mean the CH comes here looking for suggestions of a name, and that is all you’re giving them, then they choose one - end of story.
Interaction between CH and creative should be limited in this kind of atmosphere, absolutely. I would say no interaction unless the CH has taken the initiative to contact you first.
