Characteristics of our industry as one should never leave our mind set either. It is crucial for any industry that all the players within it keep a legitimate and respectful relationship with the clients so that our industries do not get a bad reputation. Now more than ever before we are getting to smell the foul odors from the bad fruits of our construction industries basket that left a bad taste in the consumer&rsquo;s mouth. It is not the information age that gave the consumer the idea to spend more time reading up on DIY books; it was the bad fruits that left that bad taste behind who pushed them to doubt their contractors. We understand we are all competing to be the winning bid but that does not mean we have to throw a foul fruit into the basket ruining a potential client for ourselves or another respected professional within our field. There is a much respected saying that cannot be put any clearer; &ldquo;Do unto others as you wish to be done unto you&rdquo;</p>]]></description><wfw:commentRss>http://topalovictile.com/journal/rss-comments-entry-14664797.xml</wfw:commentRss></item><item><title>Jasko’s vision and goal for Topalovic Tile</title><category>Arizona Tile</category><category>Custom Tile</category><category>Custom Tile Work</category><category>DalTile</category><category>Granite</category><category>Jasko</category><category>Marble</category><category>Naturale Stone</category><category>Stone</category><category>Tile</category><category>Topalovic Tile</category><category>Travertine</category><dc:creator>Jasko Topalovic</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 12 Jan 2012 22:05:04 +0000</pubDate><link>http://topalovictile.com/journal/2012/1/12/jaskos-vision-and-goal-for-topalovic-tile.html</link><guid isPermaLink="false">604011:7011577:14556234</guid><description><![CDATA[<p>Topalovic Tile to me is more than just a construction business.
