A Makeover Story

One of my favorite shows to watch is Extreme Makeover Home Edition. I love how they take deserving people who are working hard to provide for their family and completely change their lives. The show provides the family with bigger opportunities than they were able to accomplish on their own. And that's what my job does.

Today I programmed two auto attendants, which isn't really out of the ordinary. What is incredible about the programs were they were both for one gentleman who is working hard at building two companies. I feel privileged to create a program in which I am providing more opportunity than he is able to do on his own. Now with his programs he will be less likely to miss an important phone call with his find-me extensions and those he does miss will be able to leave a message in his voice mailbox. In tough economic times, these advantages could be the difference in success and failure for a small business.

I may not be Ty Pennington, but I get to participate in my own extreme makeover; the business edition.
