Jennings, Jeanette and Jessica are excited and happy to help customers any way they can at their new PostNet business in Winston-Salem, NC.
Service with a Smile
While many people dream of owning a business some day, not everyone is lucky enough to see that dream come true. I was excited to learn my friends, Jeanette and Jennings Nelson along with their son Jason, made their dream come true last year by purchasing and opening a PostNet franchise in Winston-Salem, NC.
Jason already knew about the great service PostNet offered its customers because living in Mooresville, NC, he often stopped in to mail or ship packages at the local franchise there. Jeanette also knew of PostNet’s reputation because she had seen the CEO, Steve Greenbaum, on the popular television program, Undercover Boss. Impressed with the high quality of customer service, she thought this might be something worth looking into. Having many years of experience in business and sales, after much research, soul-searching and prayer, Jennings, Jeanette and Jason came to the decision that purchasing a PostNet franchise was the opportunity of a lifetime.
Once the process began, it took about a year to bring everything together. Choosing Winston-Salem, NC, as the site for their franchise, Jennings said they made that decision for several reasons. One was because Winston-Salem didn’t have a PostNet and the other was because they found Winston-Salem to be a thriving, growing community with an emphasis on helping small business.
With almost a year behind them now, Jennings, Jeanette and Jason believe they made the right decision. Jennings said, We have enjoyed getting to know the people of Winston-Salem during the last year. They have been very supportive and made us feel welcome from day one. I couldn’t have asked for a better place to start a new business.
In addition to mailing and shipping packages, PostNet offers graphic design, print and website layout. Jessica Rhodes, as the graphic designer and only daughter of the Nelsons, knows what is expected, offering that same friendly service that customers love and appreciate.
Seeing the Nelsons serving in their community and church as leaders for over 35 years, I’ve witnessed firsthand how they always offer a ready smile, a word of encouragement or a helping hand to everyone they meet. It’s only natural this kind of philosophy transfered into their business.
As a children’s author I’m always needing updated business cards, flyers, brochures and posters. When my latest book, Tired of Being Obedient, came out in April, PostNet (Winston-Salem) updated everything efficiently and at a reasonable price. It’s for sure, I’ll be using them again and again.
Congratulations, Jennings, Jeanette, Jason and Jessica for a successful beginning to your new business venture. Here’s hoping it continues to grow and grow.
While many times we’re afraid to step outside our comfort zone for fear of the unknown, when we do, we find ourselves, like the Nelsons, pleasantly surprised. If you could own a business someday, what would it be? What’s holding you back? Leave a comment below, message on Facebook or email dicysm@yahoo.com.
As many of you know my latest book, Tired of Being Obedient, is now on Amazon.com. To help boost the ranking, my publisher Warren Publishing in Charlotte, NC, is asking everyone to purchase from Amazon on the target date, Tuesday, June 23rd. Thanks in advance.
