Theirs a local radio commercial by a business copier company where the owner warns against other competitors who want to “partner” with you. And if you hear that phrase; grab your wallet and run.
He goes on to say that you don’t need another mouth to feed (possible cliché, but OK). He says “I don’t want to be your partner, I want to be your vendor”.
I know I’m impressed. Straight forward talking.
So he doesn’t want to be a ‘copy cat’. Tee hee.
