TIDBITS


Customer Service has
always mattered, but
now that power has
shifted to the
consumer, it matters
a great deal more.

customers carry a
negative value with

very wise to get rid of
them.

A customer who
distracts you, or one
that cherry picks your
organization (line of
products), or one that
requires a
disproportionate
percentage of your
companies time and
resources is worth
letting go.
