Notice to customers by L. L. Bean

The company’s foundation can be best presented by founder L. L.’s words in answer to the question “What is a customer?” and the answer was, “A customer is the most important person ever in this company – in person or by mail. A customer is not dependent on us we’re dependent on him. A customer is not the interruption of our work, he is the purpose of it. We are not doing a favour by serving him, he is doing a favour by giving us the opportunity to do so. A customer is not someone to argue or match wits with. Nobody ever won an argument with the customer. A customer is someone who brings us his wants. It is our job to handle them profitably to him and to ourselves."
