标题:The ‘moment of truth’ in customer service

Focus on the interactions that are important to customers — and on the way frontline employees handle those interactions. In recent years, panies with far-works of frontline sales staff — banks, retailers, airlines, and incumbent providers, for example — have devoted a great deal of money and effort to retaining their current customers.
