My friend, Prashant, from Bangalore, had a Company of his own that was into designing and developing Websites, portals and also a little bit of troubleshooting of Computer Hardware and peripherals for some of its existing clients.
I just happened to visit Bangalore for a month holiday after my graduation. Since he was too busy on a particular day, I decided to help him in his work. He requested me to convince one of his toughest clients to take a website created by his Company.
Everyday I showed up at the client’s office, he would always be busy. Not losing my cool, I kept visiting the client, until he told me one day that he was computer illiterate and would be interested to learn some computer basics. Having all the time in hand, I taught him all that he required to know about computers. Every time I'd pass by his Company, I made it a point to just drop by and train him on few Computer basics.
On being pleased with my patience and dedication, he finally wanted to award me. When he asked me what is that I would want in return for my service; all I mentioned to him was that the best thing he could do for me is to create a website for his Company through my friend. In this way, it would help him and his company and also my friend's business.
He readily agreed and purchased a website from my friend
