Live! with Regis and Kelly call our gazebo home base in Prince Edward Island
Jul 13th, 2010 by Hazel
Well, it’s here! We all gathered around the small television in our owner’s office yesterday morning to see our beautiful belle roof gazebo make its debut on the famed morning talk show Live! with Regis and Kelly.
Without getting too sentimental, we were all buzzing with the opportunity. I won’t lie and say we weren’t thrilled about the exposure, but it wasn’t just that that had our hearts racing. We do have a global reach, but at the end of the day we’re still a small business. We know our customers by name, we are consistently calling meetings to make sure we are giving the best service possible, and are truly passionate about helping both commercial properties and homeowners create outdoor spaces to love and enjoy with their families. We’re a business that, no matter how many people try to convince us we should, will never use an automated service to answer our phones or direct calls. Every time the phone rings, some one is going to pick it up. These are all small things, but they’re important to us. Seeing one of our favorite gazebos on a show we’ve all watched before from our couches was like watching a best friend finally land the starring role in her favorite play after helping her rehearse lines.
It looked gorgeous up on that stage, and as we huddled around the television with travel mugs of coffee and that early Monday morning feeling of ambition…it became clear how we got it there in the first place. After the first five minutes of the show, we all realized that we should be working on creating happy customers instead of watching television. So, we turned it off and all scurried back to our desks… ready to make a backyard as breathtaking as the Regis and Kelly Stage.
Have Fun!
Hazel
