About this title

Synopsis

Customer care and measurement consultant John Goodman shows companies how to leverage the incredible power of customer service to become profitable word-of-mouth machines that experience long-term loyalty and success. Drawing on over thirty years of research for companies such as 3M, American Express, Chick-fil-A, USAA, Coca-Cola, FedEx, GE, Cisco Systems, Neiman Marcus, and Toyota, his strategic book challenges conventional business wisdom and teaches readers how to: calculate the financial impact of good and bad customer service; make the financial case for customer service improvements; systematically identify the causes of problems; align customer service with their brand; and harness customer service strategy into their organization's culture and behavior.Any organization can win more customers and increase sales if it would only learn to align customer service with corporate strategy. Filled with patented practices and eye-opening case studies, Strategic Customer Service uses hard data to teach readers how reap the benefits of customer loyalty.

Store Description

With 3 stores less than 1 hour outside the DC/Metropolitan area (1 in Gaithersburg, 1 in Frederick and 1 in Hagerstown, MD), we have the largest selection of books in the tri-state area. Wonder Book and Video has been in business since 1980 and online since 1997. We have over 1 Million books for sale on our website and another 1 Million books for sale in our 3 locations. Items on Abe are not necessarily in stock at our retail locations. Please do not call the stores to place orders for Abe Books sales. We have a very active online inventory and as such, we can receive multiple orders for the same item. We fill those orders on a first come first serve basis, but will refund promptly any items that are out of stock. Since 1980 it has always been about the books. ALL kinds of books from 95 cent children's paperbacks to five figure rare and collectibles. A merging of the old and new is where we started, and it is where we are today. Our retail stores have always been places where a reader can rush in looking for a title needed for a term paper that is due the next day, or where bibliophiles can get lost "in the stacks" for as long as they wish. In 2002 USAToday recognized us as "1 of 10 Great Old Bookstores", and we have been featured in numerous other newspaper and TV stories including Washington Post and CSpan. Members ABAA, ILAB.
