I would love to read that from my competition … obviously written in a good way.
You might ask why, which is really rather simple to answer.
- I have no reason to poach your clients. There are simply too many potential clients in the marketplace and definitely more than enough to share and prosper with.
- I recommend end-users seek you out for support of your themes and plugins first … it just makes sense. Addressing an issue with code in one installation does not serve the greater good of fixing the issue at its root and having the entire installation base benefit.
- If you need a quick answer with something and I know it, or have a reasonable suggestion, I am more than willing to share. A simple thank you is more than fair compensation for my time.
I help you, you help me; the WordPress community wins … and, you are the competition I want.
