Customer service is the most important thing your business must get right. The customer experience is an integral part of customer relationship management and exceptional customer experience increase will increase profitability.

As we all know, one bad experience can make a customer turn away from a company for life. What’s even worse, there is a high probability that disgruntled customer will tell others about their negative experiences, post negative reviews online for the entire world to see and damaged the company’s reputation. Nowadays your brand’s reputation is incredibly valuable, and you want to an active effort to create a positive experience.  Especially with the internet taking notice of negative comments, your reputation is the first thing to take a hit when you have an extended streak of lousy customer service.

As Warren Buffet said, “It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it.
