Customer Service Book Review: Super Service

Customer Service Book Review: Super Service: Seven Keys to Delivering Great Customer Service… by Jeff Gee and Val Gee

If you’re looking for a book with basic, useful, down to earth customer service advice, you should look at this one. It’s a veteran and it’s written by customer service veterans who know their business. This book is a fast reading one but it has a lot of punch for the price.

They start by talking about Service. Not customer service but the true meaning of service, that is, helping others. They help us understand right away, we’re all here to help others.

The authors have sprinkled this book liberally with “how-to” items so you can put their suggestions to work right away. I love this! They also cover the important subject of how we can keep ourselves motivated to serve others well all the time.

Because it’s a book on customer service basics, you’ll find there here. Sections on attitude, understanding customers, how to reach agreement and communications. They also cover the issues of stress (and how to avoid burnout) and working with angry customers.

This is a valuable book for anyone who wants to deliver better service to their customers or who manages people who work directly with customers.

Peachtree knows that customer service is cool

Customer service is the new marketing because now companies can no longer control what people are saying about them. Everyday, customers and prospects are ranting and raving about your company on social networking platforms like Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. Companies that don’t get customer service and don’t react to what customers are talking about are doomed to fail.

Focus on customer service in 2010 (finally?)

This may be it. This may be the year that it finally happens. 2010 may just be the year that companies start to focus on their customers and serving them well.

Now, I am cautiously optimistic about this focus on customer service, but let me tell you why I feel this way.

1. Brands are using a focus on customers as a competitive differentiator in their advertisements.
