The Perfect Match: Clients Pick Best Businesses, Businesses Pick Best Clients

Finding the perfect match is a wonderful feeling, whether it's in matters of the heart or in business. There's a certain magic in connecting with someone who truly understands your needs. In the world of business, this perfect match occurs when clients choose the best businesses, and businesses, in turn, select the best clients. In this article, we'll talk about the nuances of choosing the right clients for your business.


Lessons From An Airport Transfer to Disney that Started with Early Thanks


In January 2024, as I chauffeured my new client and her family from Orlando airport to their Disney resort, she expressed her delight in choosing our limo service. Her happiness was evident, and I conveyed my gratitude by saying, "Thank you for choosing TUXEDO." However, her response took me by surprise. She replied with a smile, "No, thank YOU for choosing us."


I was taken aback because our journey had just begun, and it felt a tad early for expressions of gratitude. Typically, we exchange thanks at the end of the trip. Nevertheless, during those initial moments of our ride, she shared a brief story about their previous Orlando visit nearly two years ago. She described it as a complete disaster, starting with their previous car service chauffeur arriving significantly late for their airport pickup, and his vehicle being in poor condition. At the end of her unfortunate tale, she simply noted, "Well, I've learned my lesson."


"Hakuna-Matata-Don't-Worry-Be-Happy" Companies Make Our Clients Value Quality More


Listening to her experience, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride knowing that our company had managed to restore her faith in the Orlando limousine industry. She now understands that not all car services in Orlando fall into the category of "hakuna-matata-don't-worry-be-happy" companies, where you simply go with the flow. Some of us here in Orlando are truly dedicated to providing exceptional service.


From this brief conversation with my new client, I had a valuable takeaway. It reiterated the importance of choosing the right clients and the impact it can have on their perception of our industry and our commitment to excellence.


Lesson 1: Best Clients and Best Businesses Choose Each Other


One might wonder, "Since when does a limo company get to pick its clients? We cater to anyone who can pay for our service." Well, that's kind of picking too. Our pricing is part of the “selection” process and it acts as a filter, attracting our ideal clients who prioritize top-notch service over the low price. We've identified our ideal buyer category and tailored our service to meet their specific needs. While many transportation providers in the Orlando area are aiming to beat anybody’s price and to be affordable to everyone, TUXEDO went the opposite route. We want to provide service the most discerning clients who appreciate high quality.


I was eager to hear my friend Thomas Halsnik's perspective on choosing clients. Thomas owns Walsh Chauffeured Transportation in Tampa, FL. With his extensive experience in the transportation business, he sheds light on the importance of choosing the right clients and nurturing these relationships. Here are some key takeaways from his perspective: "We select clients by marketing to our ideal buyers—those we work well with. Everything we do is geared toward attracting our ideal buyers."


Apparently, what my new client saw and heard about TUXEDO resonated with her and drew her to us. That’s why she said “No, thank YOU for choosing us”.


Lesson 2: Respect Customer Choices, Even When They Opt for Lower-Priced Service


Respecting people's choices, even when they opt for a lower-priced service, is important. In the long run, it can work in your favor because there's a good chance they might turn to you as their preferred transportation provider if the cheaper option doesn't meet their expectations.


Take my new client, for example. She had an experience that taught her a valuable lesson. Now, she's willing to pay significantly more for a top-notch service because she understands the difference firsthand. Her appreciation has grown because she knows the value of quality service, and this could lead to a lasting and loyal customer relationship.


Pricing as an Element of Client Selection


Pricing can be an effective strategy for selecting better clients by attracting those who value and can afford a premium service. This, in turn, can lead to more stable, profitable, and mutually beneficial client-business relationships.


  • Qualification by Affordability: Higher prices naturally filter out clients who may not be able to afford a premium service. This means that those who choose to pay more are often financially better suited for the service, reducing the likelihood of payment issues or disputes.

  • Attracting Serious Clients: Clients willing to pay higher prices are often more serious and committed to obtaining a high-quality service. They are less likely to engage in price shopping or haggle over costs, as they prioritize the value and quality of the service over price.

  • Higher Expectations: Clients who are willing to pay a premium price typically have higher expectations for the service they receive. This can drive businesses to maintain a high standard of quality, leading to better client experiences.

  • Reducing Demand Fluctuations: High prices can stabilize demand and reduce fluctuations. Businesses can maintain a steady client base without being overwhelmed during peak periods or experiencing lulls during off-peak times.

  • Focus on Value: Higher prices allow businesses to focus on delivering exceptional value. Clients who pay more expect and appreciate superior service, which encourages businesses to continually improve and innovate.

  • Resource Allocation: Premium pricing allows businesses to allocate resources more effectively. They can invest in quality personnel, training, equipment, and infrastructure to meet the demands of discerning clients.

  • Brand Image: A reputation for higher prices can enhance a business's brand image and positioning in the market. It signals exclusivity, quality, and a commitment to excellence.

  • Loyalty and Long-Term Relationships: Clients who are willing to invest more in a service are often looking for long-term relationships. They are more likely to become loyal customers and provide repeat business.

  • Less Price Sensitivity: Higher-priced clients are generally less price-sensitive. They are more focused on the value and quality of the service rather than solely on cost, which can lead to more stable and profitable client relationships.

  • Reduced Competition: Premium pricing can reduce competition from businesses offering lower-priced, low-quality services. This creates a niche market where businesses can thrive by catering to clients who prioritize quality and are willing to pay for it.

Small businesses need to screen their potential customers for several reasons.


  • Firstly, it helps them to identify customers who are more likely to be profitable and less likely to default on payments.

  • Secondly, it helps them to avoid customers who may be a liability to the business, such as those who have a history of fraud or non-payment.

  • Thirdly, it helps them to identify customers who are a good fit for their business and who are more likely to be satisfied with their products or services. This can lead to increased customer loyalty and repeat business.


Screening potential customers is an important process for small businesses to ensure that they are working with customers who are a good fit for their business and who are more likely to be profitable and satisfied with their products or services.
