Focusing on Quality to Survive the Downturn

It has been quite a while since my last blog and the world has changed. My last blog talked about the past two years and getting recognized by Inc. for being one of the fast growing companies in 2007 and 2008. I was proud of our work and our team. I still am.

Since that time the economy has challenged everything and everyone and the barrage of bad news never seems to end and seems to feed on itself. Personally, I have been limited to reading the news only twice a day and have had to determine how to position Teambonding as we continue to move into uncharted territory. What I hold onto every day is the knowledge and firm belief that our current and future clients know that keeping employees engaged and happy is a good investment for the company and for the economy.

Teambonding is a partner for so many of these good companies that if I focus on one thing during this time, we will be rewarded. The one thing that will continue to separate us from the others in our industry is quality and just this week we received more great feedback from two of our favorite clients that I wanted to share.

The first is a repeat client who just wrote about Operation: Military Care : “Michael was a good as they get! We’d love to have him back again. And it was a GREAT event for our community. That’s two home runs in a row for Team Bonding. “ Repeat clients are the measurement of success for a team building company and we are fortunate to have so many like this one.

The second is a from a New Jersey meeting planner who shared this feedback after a Charity Bike Build program with our lead facilitator. Rob Fletcher. “I love how Teambonding is so closely knit and their standard of work is uniformly high .” We couldn’t have said it better ourselves. Teambonding is a great team that builds great teams.

I have to believe that when the dust settles smart companies will recognize and reward employees that have ridden out the storm and companies that merge and acquire, will need help connecting their employees with the new company. We will be there to help with innovative programs, trained facilitators and our pricing that continues to set us apart from others as a value in the industry. We are what we do, we are Teambonding!
