Celebrate Customer Service Week
This week is Customer Service Week. It shouldn’t be a week. It should be all the time. None the less, it has become recognized as a week to celebrate and promote customer service. Take the time to do something special for your customers or employees. Here are some ideas:
- Take the time to write or call your customers to show some (extra) appreciation.
- Have a short customer service training session (or two) for your employees.
- Each day have employees record an example of when they provide a great customer service experience.
- And, my favorite idea: Buy a copy of “The Cult of the Customer” for your favorite customers and employees.
-- New Iphone apps! Did you download your customer service iPhone apps? Three apps: “Cult of the Customer,” “Moments of Magic” and the “Shep Hyken App” Go to the app store and download them (no charge) and you will have access to tips and strategies from the books along with my favorite customer service articles, videos, photos, speaking schedule and more. In the app store, search for them by their names.
No iPhone? No worries! Just go to www.Hyken.com/app and you will have access to some of the same content – just not on your phone.

"Cult of the Customer" iPhone App Now Available – FREE!
If you have an iPhone, “The Cult of the Customer” is available as a free app. (It used to cost $1.99.) Just go to the apps section and type in the book title or my last name (Hyken). It’s like an extreme “Cliff Notes” version of the book. And, it won’t cost you a thing. If you already have the book, it is filled with reminders. If you don’t have the book, it’s a great introduction. And did I mention – It’s free! So, what do you have to lose? Do it now!
Go to www.CultOfTheCustomer.com.

How Easy Is It to Buy From You?
How many ways can your customers buy what it is that you sell?
Domino’s just announced a new way to order pizza. Up until recently, there were three ways you could order a Domino’s pizza; place your order on the phone, on their website or on location. Now if you own a TiVo digital video recorder, you can now order a pizza direct from your TV. When customers see a Domino’s ad, they will be able to click “I want it” from their TV (TiVo) remote control. In about 30 minutes a piping hot Domino’s pizza will be delivered.
The lesson: Look for non-traditional ways/channels of selling your products or services. Options make it easier for customers to buy from you.
