Managing Customer Relationships
Customer service has become more important than ever, giving new meaning to the old adage "the customer is king". It means understanding the customer's requirements, managing the customer's expectations and meeting or even exceeding those expectations. Good customer service requires a wide range of expertise that encompasses communication and language skills, technical knowledge and particularly a desire to meet the customer's expectations.
