A very useful book which looks at customer service from many angles. Some of the advice seems obvious - until you remember the many companies we have all dealt with which are not doing the obvious! With the help of the advice in this book that need not be your company. Whether your business is large and global or small and local you will find information in this book which will help you to keep your customers from moving to the competition.
Everyone knows that to build a successful business you need to RETAIN your customers once you have convinced them to join you in the first place. This book takes a common sense approach to achieving that goal. I have read all of the 'bare knuckle series' and found they take you on a business journey, from looking at yourself, obtaining what you need from a business transaction and now keeping your customers to build repeat income streams. Simple processes that keep you asking 'why haven't I done that already?' In todays economic climate lose your customers at your own peril!
I am usually very sceptical when I see a book with a title like this, and in truth it doesn't offer any new solutions to age old problems. However, it is a very enjoyable to read and everyone can learn something from the advice that is metered out. Whilst the book is more positioned to larger companies, smaller business and the self employed can gain a valuable insight into how customers will judge their business and how they can learn the techniques to keep them coming back for more.
This book is quite rare in the fact that it links customer service to the bottom line. Very helpful if you are trying to persuade your MD or CEO to spend money on a process to improve customer relations which on the face of it won't improve profits overnight or indeed in the short term either. However this book concentrates on the change of mindset needed to tackle customer service issues with real benefits for all.
