On Demand Webinar

We may think that price is king but the main reason customers leave for a competitor is because of poor customer service. Customer service isn’t rocket science so why do most companies fall short? One study found that 80% of companies thought they delivered superior service but only 8% of their customers agreed. We all have room to improve.

It is an invitation to leave when employees act with indifference and don't appreciate the real value of a customer. And we all know that there is plenty of competition to scoop up customers when we fail to meet or exceed their needs. We also know that it is much easier to retain a customer than to find a new one.

Most employees want to do the right thing but many don't know the essentials of top customer service or they just need a reminder. Any employee (regardless of industry) who has contact with customers has the potential to retain customers or chase them away.
