More details to this question:
person or persons who have been a customer of this company during the term of this agreement and for 1 year after termination of the agreement. So I want to make sure that this means I can provide services for people that have not used the company during this time, I also want to make sure that they mean from the date the non-compete was signed as the term of the agreement.

Based solely on the facts you provide, and without reviewing the contract itself, your interpretation appears correct.

Your understanding appears to be correct. The "term" of the agreement may be a defined term in the agreement itself; you need to look for this. Also note that, as worded, it would not be necessary for the customer to have been a customer during the time you were employed; if it became a customer during the year following termination of your employment, even though you never dealt with iit as an employee. you would be precluded from doing business with it. This might be a ridiculous result but the agreement seems to say that nonetheless.
