My Business Magazine
Articles ideas are erratic, sometimes I have 20 at once and sometimes I have zero! I was thinking about my next article when a client told me that when talking to staff about customer service he always uses what I said in my seminar (before he became a client), Customer Service is Like Dating. So I thought it was a great time to revisit it!
The article appeared in My Business online 26 August 2011, click here, there are a lot of great articles on the site, or click here to download it as a pdf: CustomerService_Dating.
