[QUOTE="upsdawg, post: 88501, member: 2020"] It is getting harder and harder to get money for sponsorships for customer appreciation stuff. In our district--if it isn't submitted a few months a head of time---it won't be approved---and with our budget cuts---there isn't money to spend by the district.I know that UPS can wrie off soem of the monies that we donate--but if every district spent as much money as they wanted on sponsoring golf tournaments and taking customers to Basketball---Baseball games--it would have a negative impact on our bottom line !! UPS needs to spend some monies on Capital Expendatures---we need to build some larger buildings----and now UPS Freight , which is maxed out for space --needs to increase the size of.......don't know how many terminals, to meet the growth that we are expecting in the LTL Trucking market. Regarding our Sales Force-----they can't even get a $5 UPS trinket for a $100k customer because there is no money allocated for that.I don't know what our competitors have for "Entertainment Allowances", but I guarantee it is more than UPS has to spend. Regarding the customer in FL-------I am sure that rates/service..something else contributed to their leaving UPS, other than us not sponsoring a hole! [/QUOTE]
