- This book is part of a family of similar books containing learning games and activites, but this one focuses on the customer service area. It contains 50 games that focus on skills such as listening, smoothing out ruffled feathers and so on.
Most games are short and can be completed in 15-30 minutes, and the customer service exercise material can be reproduced without restriction.

- The book itself contains 35 chapters written by experts in customer service, and maps out the WHY'S and HOW'S of superior customer service, one of the areas where the competitive advantages are determined.
And, while many people forget that SMALL businesses have a greater need to provide excellent top quality service, this is a book for anyone in any industry.

- A lot of customer service books are written with the wrong assumption in mind - that the customer is always right, which is the biggest load of hooey around.
This book is different. It starts with the premise that customer service starts with how employees are treated which is consistent with my own views on customer service.

- We've included this for two reasons. One: Service to customers is starting to shift to electronic interactions via the internet, and we need to address that. Second, this is listed as the 25th BEST SELLING BOOK at Amazon.com which is absolutely astounding.
