Service With a Smile

"A popular author, speaker, and seminar instructor, Sara Probasco has brought to the locksmith industry an ability to laugh at ourselves while we hone our business skills. Her upbeat personality and extra-mile philosophy of life come shining through in this enjoyable collection of her finest articles."
--Marc Goldberg, editor, National Publishing Co.


A "Southern Belle" transplanted to West Texas by marriage, Sara Probasco found herself thrust into a whole new way of life that included locksmithing. With tongue in cheek and a smile on her lips, she shares with you her experiences with language barriers, unruly customers, handling telemarketers and drop-in salesmen, collecting delinquent accounts, and a host of other topics near and dear to the hearts of people in service-related businesses.

Fifty-eight chapters include such titles as "Bedtime Stories, Locksmith Style," "Signs of the Times," "No pay, No Play," 'Tain't Funny, McGee," "Lost, but not Least," "This Ain't Burger King," and "A Murphy Kind of Day."

This collection of anecdotal tales should tickle the funny bone of anyone who deals with the public day after day in a service-related business.
