Calling customers "Clients"

My question still remains?!?!?!?!?!?

When have you ever called someone a customer or client? Why not just call them by their name?

Hi Mr Client,

I see your paint is all jacked up. Would you like me to take care of that for you?

How stupid does that sound :rolleyes: I'm sticking with Mr & Mrs ;)

Well obviously you're not going to walk up to them and say "Hello, client!" but if you're talking with them about your work and say something like "Typically my clients ask for....." or "I had a client with a similar problem and I did ____ to fix it..." the word choice won't go unnoticed.

Does that answer your question?
 
It's basically a synonym, so it doesn't really matter.who cares about what others do, go with what you feel comfortable and stop worrying about others.
