CUSTOMER SERVICE / CUSTOMER LOYALTY / SERVICE QUALITY | Don’t Boycott Arizona Businesses!

There’s been a lot of news about Arizona’s new law that allows law enforcement officers stop anyone they encounter and request proof of eligibility to be here in the US.  Let me make myself perfectly clear, I despise any type of law that treads on what I consider my personal freedom.

There have been protests, rally’s and millions of words written online about the law.  I would encourage residents of Arizona to communicate their legislators to repeal this law.  If the elected officials refuse to listen, elect someone who will.

The average business in Arizona is completely disconnected from this law.  In these tough economic times, it can only hurt the recovery to exclude a business in Arizona because of their legislator’s actions.  I suspect that any business in Arizona would welcome new business with open arms.  If you’re really concerned, ask what the business owner’s position on the matter is and make your judgment then.  I encourage everyone to take a moment and think of what happens when we generalize any group based on the actions of a minority of their group.  The last time I checked, it’s not only unfair, it’s immoral.

So, there’s my two cents on Arizona’s response to the illegal immigration problem.  Be sure to stop by our other web sites for additional information and ideas about building customer loyalty:
