I will then continue to support local businesses, hire local applicants, and purchase from local sources whenever possible. I will be truthful with the members and will build goodwill and trust by honoring my commitments and promises. I will become familiar and abide by all local, state and federal statutes that govern my business. I will live up to the ethical standards of my profession and will provide the quality of service at the prices I have quoted.
