I run a little shop which sells all sorts of computer bits. It is great fun and it means that I can get all sorts of great parts at cheap prices. I am often buying things off myself so that I can experiment with them. Lately I have had a big order of printed circuit boards and I have taken a few homes. I always think that it is a good idea to try the goods out myself because I can give the customers feedback on how I found the items were to use and how flexible they were as well as whether I thought they were good value for money. I did this with the last shipment of flexible circuit boards that we had in and I was able to tell the customers that I thought they were really good value for money and I sold out really quickly. I am never afraid to return a selection of goods if I think that they are not providing me with a good product and so my customers know that what they are buying is good and has been tested by me first. I think that it is a great way to run a small business and it brings great rewards as my customers keep coming back and my business is thriving even in the recession.
