Quick One's Vice President of Sales, Lori, had this to say:

"So often, when I stop by to see a prospective account, I am asked 'What sets Quick One apart from the rest? Why would I call your company rather than another of the multitudes of other services seeking my business?'

"My answer to this is simple. We care to be the best. When your order comes in, that order is always treated as urgent. We understand that when our messenger service is called, it is already the last minute. This is the time you need a clutch player. The only personnel we use for dispatching are individuals who can respond to pressure and come through for you. The dispatcher sends messengers who are fully informed on where to pick up, where to deliver and the fastest way to get from A to B. Coming through for you is what we do best."


From THE COURIER TIMES March/April 1995 cover story:

"Time For A Quick One Ahem! This is an interesting play on words. In 1987 Lori and Tom Jacoby decided they had enough with working for someone else and started their operations in New Hyde Park, N.Y. Both were familiar with transportation issues and they felt they had the right chemistry for a startup. Time For A Quick One has two faces — depending on the customer's mood. Sometimes it's only "A Quick One." No matter what your feeling about the name, their company has grown by leaps and bounds. They now have a branch office in Manhattan and business is excellent. They chose their name to convey a message of speed and fun. It serves them well.

"Tom and Lori are members of the fast-growing Church of Scientology and apply the subject to make their operation purr. Communication courses have helped them and their staff raise effectiveness and efficiency in the dispatching and sales area. They have also incorporated a system of statistics to measure and raise production in key areas, based on the administrative technology of Scientology and Dianetics founder L. Ron Hubbard."

Time For A Quick One, Inc is a member of WISE and operated on the Hubbard® Management System.
