Sell Crap but Spice Up your service department
September 19th, 2005 — | What say you?
Just reading Peter Doyle's marketing bible something really struck me…
Few customers defect due to poor product performance. Only *14 per cent defect for this reason. Two thirds (66+ %!!!) leave because they find service people indifferent or inaccessible.
(Peter Doyle on Customer Loyality, 3rd.ed. p.41)
While I agree that service quality, all kinds of support channels are a MUST in today's world – especially when it comes to complex products and especially services themselves – that's a HUGE difference – products 14%, service 66%.
Hence the catchy title to spice up your service ..
