Rule Your Pool

The Golden Rule, with Harold Evans

Episode Summary

Treating others the way you want to be treated is the essence of The Golden Rule. In the pool business, that means treating customers with honesty and respect, but more than that, assertiveness. Respect goes both ways, because pool service professionals have to make a living too, and cannot be everything to everyone.
