Is customer service dead? Absolutely not! . Customer service is not dead, but it is changing. Part of that change is that we now look at the broader concept of customer experience, which is that overall journey a customer takes with a business or brand.

It is a subset of customer experience and often one of the most important parts of any experience because it is often the part of the experience that is the make or break

I remember the date, because it was my first restaurant meal of the new year; it was also the last time I ate at that restaurant. I never went back in 2019, and in that lost business is a customer service lesson for all organizations. A Cold Sandwich and a Cold Shoulder.

It’s been said, it’s not “what you know, but who you know.” I take that wisdom a bit further to say, it’s not what you know or who you know, but what you know about who you know.
