(Customer) Service at Its Best

It's supposed to be the most wonderful time of the year. But, some people like the spring better anyway.

During this time of year, stores will be packed with holiday shoppers. The essence of customer service is so vital right now. Since you all have been good sports and have endured the increase in emails this month, I wanted to leave you with something to look forward to for the month of December. The topic of customer service is a little different from health and fitness, but it does pertain to the context in which they are given. Not to mention, good customer service should be exercised in every retail store, home, church, in normal conversation, and more. However, this problem exists: good customer service is not always present.

I have a slight...yea, a slight (I was going to say "huge")...problem with poor customer service, especially in my field.

For so many people, this time of a year is a vulnerable time. Therefore, special attention to good customer service should be practiced. Rudeness does not have room. Going above and beyond keeps the customer/guest, and the worker/employee/host seeks great care.

Happy December,

Derek
