I've spent a lot of time at the post office lately and it's fascinating. My latest book came out in March, which means I've sent a lot of books to people I interviewed or who endorsed the book. The books require a special type of discounted postage called media mail, so I have to go to the counter to buy it from a postal clerk. There are three clerks who regularly work in my local post office.

By Turaj Seyrafiaan. There is a classic quote by John D. Rockefeller that says, “ Don’t be afraid to give up the good to go for the great! ”. But is that a good advice? As a consultant I have learned to say it depends!! It very much depends on the situation and what we are trying to achieve. There are times that we should aim for excellence. As an example, we all know how important customer service and customer experience is and for those situations I would say yes, just being ‘Good’ is not good

We’ve all heard that dreaded phrase before: “I’d like to speak to your supervisor.”. It’s easy to feel nervous after hearing that — nobody wants to deal with angry customers! An escalation request also often means that a customer feels dissatisfied with your service, which can feel discouraging. But, you don’t need to be afraid of escalations. In fact, it’s an opportunity for agents to improve their skills and for a company to learn where they can improve their operations.

Sometimes customers want to talk to a live person. Maybe they’re not finding what they need in your help documentation, or they want to talk through an issue in real time, and email simply won’t cut it. Offering live support can really take your customer experience to the next level. Though phone support may be what many think of for live support, there’s another option: live chat.

It’s no secret in tech that everyone is a big fan of their own work. Self-belief isn’t optional. To start a startup, to take on incumbents, to disrupt an industry – all of this requires believing that you see things changing. Believing that you have something truly new to offer. Believing that customers who try it will see better results. And you need to tell everyone, all the time.
