#Things to consider

  1. Think of the times when you have received extraordinary service. How much more did you end up spending with that company? How many people did you tell about your experience?
  2. Never ask “What don’t you like?” That salesman did more than fail to sell me. He lost any chance of ever selling me. Did I tell him his sales pitch was bad? No, I didn’t. It wasn’t worth a prolonged discussion.
  3. First, before you write an ad, rent a list, dash off a press release—fix your service. The core of service marketing is the service itself.
  4. After you say one thing, repeat it again and again.
  5. Nothing confuses employees more and inspires them less than vague marching orders and no road map.
