Organizations everywhere are talking about the importance of service, support, and customer satisfaction.  Businesses of all types believe the customer (internal or external) is the main concern.  However, creating outstanding customer service requires organizations to think of more than the event.  The focus has to be on building a positive relationship between the company and its customers, as success comes from managing that relationship.  Outstanding companies know just doing their job is not enough, and focus on how they interact with the customer.  Each contact is an opportunity that can be used to build a successful relationship or damage it.  This program will train participants to build strong, positive relationships that can be utilized daily to ensure success for everyone.
