RANDOM LINGO
Bait and Switch
(1). The deceptive practice of enticing a new customer with empty promises (read: low fees) only to spring the real deal on them after it’s too late for them to back out.
“What is this, some kind of bait and switch? You’re sign says ‘All You Can Eat’ and, goddamnit, I want more shrimp!”
Bespoke
(1). Unnecessarily customized. Like iPhone cases.
“I just can’t believe we can’t figure out how to provide annual fee summaries in some kind of automated fashion, Don. Having your team create some kind of bespoke document for every account is lunacy. Can you see if the Tech guys have some kind of solution here? I’m going to let Jim know I’m on top of this, in the meantime. Thanks a bunch.”
