Customers and Marriage

Switch to <insert cell phone service provider>, and we will pay off the remainder of your old phone contract.

Buy this new truck, and we will pay off the remainder of your previous car loan.

Get cable/satellite service and save 50% for your first 12 months.

Get married to me, and I will give you this huge ring, an amazing wedding and a loveless marriage.

Wait, that last one sounds horrible, yet it is oddly similar to the messages sent in many of the advertisements I see on TV.

Instead of worrying about what sort of trick we will use to get out our next customer, or, if polygamy floats your boat, next spouse, how about we start taking care of those we already have.
