Part Time vs. Full Time

I'm running into an interesting phenomenon in photography over the last few years.  I'm going to call it the two sides of part time vs fulltime individual.  I'm aware that the current ecomony is making everyone more aware of how they need to spend their hard earned dollars and with this in mind, I ask you to consider which is the better long term investment.

1.  Fulltime vendors are dedicated to his or her service.  
2.  Partime vendors may be jugglling several services in an effort to "make a buck" at any cost.
3.  Fulltime vendors focus on their craft and you as a client more effectively than someone spreading
     themselves too thin at times.
4.  Fulltime vendors more often than not have a long track record of success compared to
     part time or multiple service individuals.
5.  MegaMart style stores cover acres of products but how often do you really rely on them
     for customer service?  In many cases, it's more cost effective to go to a specialist for the best and
     most long term cost effective service and solution.
6.  Part time or multitaskers still only have 24 hours in a day.  I checked.  Keep that in mind when
     you wonder why it's taking so long for them to get back to you.

7.  To be continued......
