Kudo's To Karla & Barbs Harley Davidson: Collingswood, NJ

Karla Barbs Harley Davidson Collingswood NJ Leander McClain RealtorTHANK YOU

My grandmother taught me to always say Please and Thank You.  Saying and meaning those magic words has gotten me far in life.  I would like to publicly say thank you to my new friend Karla at Barbs Harley-Davidson in W. Collingswood Heights, NJ.  Below is a copy of a thank you letter that I sent to Barb, the owner of the dealership. 

Thank You Karla

*****************************************

Dear Barb:

I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude and publicly thank your staff.   I filled out an online form indicating that I was interested in purchasing a Harley-Davidson.  I was contacted via email by Karla.  I had previously visited another dealership and no one even asked if they could help me.  When I was contacted by Karla, I was skeptical.  In my mind, I wondered if I really wanted to be a part of the Harley family if this is how I was to be treated every time I walked into the dealership.

I gave Karla my information and she called me.  I thought I knew what I wanted to buy.  Karla spent time and talked to me and asked if I had ridden the bike I wanted to buy. When I told her no, she suggested that I come in and ride several different models.  She told me that I needed to absolutely love whatever bike I purchased.

When my wife and I came to the dealership, we were greeted at the front door and asked if we needed help. I was directed to Karla.  She was just as nice and sweet in person as she was on the phone.  We looked as many bikes and I picked out one I liked.  She introduced me to Blake and he took me out on a test ride.  Blake was cool, nice and knowledgeable.

We left that night without purchasing a bike.  We never felt pressured and your staff was not disappointed or upset that we did not buy.  I called Karla later in the week and told her that I thought I needed a larger bike.  She told me to come back and ride as many bikes as needed until I found "the one".  Eventually, I settled on a 2008 Anniversary Edition Superglide Custom.  Lisa was my salesperson and she helped complete the purchase.  Lisa was very nice and even remembered my name. 

I completed the transaction and rode home on my new bike on 5/30/09.  In the future, I will always return to Barbs for all of my Harley needs.  I have told several people who are interested in purchasing that there is only one place they need to go, Barb's.  Thank you and your staff for making this such a pleasurable experience.

Sincerely,

Leander McClain

Okay... having a picture of Karla is a very nice gesture and I think the THANK YOU is GREAT!  Kudo's for taking the time out.  Now that I've said that... WHERE's the picture of the bike man?!?!?!

Leander - Not only do we want to give good customer service we also like to receive it.  Sounds like Karla has a customer for life :)

So how come you did not show us the bike?

Have a great weekend.

Brother Leander can I get a Harley Davidson bike? LOL. I wouldn't mind one. But I am glad that Harley Davidson provided you with great customer service. You will be surprised how many big name companies customer service is just atricious. And I agree with John,where is the picture of the bike?

But I also stopped by because Active Brad just wrote a blog about the show on HGTV "House Hunters" casting for some real estate professionals and home buyers in your area. Though you will be interested in this. Here is the blog ActiveRain Community Search - HGTV's "House Hunters" Is Now Casting. Much success to you bro. Great post.

Lanette ~  you are funny :)

Lanre ~ they are running a special.  $5 down and you can walk out the door with your new bike.  Let me know, maybe we can ride together some time.   

Jennifer & John - The bike pick was at the end of this post http://activerain.com/blogsview/1083384/my-love-for-the-open-road-how-it-all-began

 

Have a great day everyone

Leander
