Momma Always Said Respect Your Elders
Thank goodness for mothers everywhere. There is never a day that I don’t use the wisdom passed on from my parents. My mother always told me to respect my elders. In our business we seldom get to finance equipment that can truly lift the human spirit. We had such an opportunity when a repeat customer who we financed software for last year. The customer called us and asked if we could finance 8 digital pianos for their assisted living facility. Most facilities have pianos but these pianos have a digital CD Player that plays requests.
It was the first such request we have ever received. I have financed all kinds of different equipment including: zambonis and a fence for a tiger refuge in Texas. When our customers have a need for equipment for their business it is our duty to do everything we can to get them their equipment. We financed the pianos for the customer and it was music to their ears. They were surprised and elated eLease were able to lease the peculiar equipment they needed.
When I got in the car that evening to go home I called my mother who worked in the hospice industry for the state of New Jersey as a medical investigator and told her about the customer. She expressed to me how important music is for people in assisted living facilities. She wished more facilities used these types of technology to help their residents become more active and to enhance residence’s spiritual well being. She also said that most pianos sit dormant without anyone who knows how to play them. The digital piano allows people to experience a live piano without having to know how to play the piano.
A lot of times mom doesn’t understand what eLease actually does sometimes. It was a pleasure to share a real world example with her and make a difference for their guests. I am proud we are able to provide a service so many will enjoy! Mom was right.
