Theory or Fact. Quality is always the Wisest Business Investment. Quality products are more successful than mass produced cheaper products. They work better, are usually more energy efficient, they usually look better, and certainly last longer if you treat them right.
Quality service is it's own reward.
When customers are pleased with the attention they receive from a Person or Company, they stay with that company.
In the Workplace, A quality worker does his job well. A quantity worker just tries to impress people with how much he has done.
With respect to Customer Relations, One angry customer out of 100 will do you more harm than 99 happy customers.
Few people 'rave' about how good a business is, but most people will 'complain their heads off' if they are upset with a business enterprise.
With respect to Business Products, Making the short term profit does not guarantee long term viability!
If even one of your products does not live up to it's image or “sales pitch”, your whole line of products will be under threat.
In terms of your education, If you get the top English score in China, but can't do the job you are hired to do, then it is clear that you have concentrated on quantity (exam results) instead of Quality (being successful in your learning).

Why are you Learning Business English?
This is a good question, and only you can answer it. But there are two inescapable observations when it comes to the topic of Business English.
1. Studying Business is about Learning Theoretical Knowledge.
2. Studying English is not meant to be theoretical.
By this I mean that it will not be until you are in the business environment that you get your hands on experience of it. At that time, you will need to recall all that you have learned at University about Business.
But as far as English is concerned, the purpose of your studies is to give you the practical ability that you will need when you enter the English Speaking Business World.
As long as students are learning theory only, they will not be sufficiently equipped when they enter a work environment in which they are expected to be able to converse in English.
Question: What is the quality of your Oral English Ability?
A Chinese student with extremely high scores for American standardized tests was admitted into one of the Ivy League universities. But his professors soon found out that he could hardly understand them in the classroom. Suspecting that he cheated in the tests, school administrators demanded he repeat them. Again, he passed with flying colours. Not till then did they awaken to the reality that the student had mastered the techniques for acing the tests, not necessarily the skills demonstrated in them.
