A FEW OF THE BOOKS WRITTEN BY JAMES D. FELDMAN

D•A•T•I•N•G Your Customer®

D•A•T•I•N•G Your Customer®

A Relationship Manual

This is Jim’s 3rd book that focuses on a serious issue in the US…the decline of acceptable Customer Service. For most of us we are frustrated by the ease with which we can place an order for a product or service and the amount of hurdles we have to overcome to obtain service or a refund.

Most companies either exceed Customer expectations like Zappos, Apple, or Nordstrom or fall so short of delivering what is promised that the list is too long to mention.

This is an easy to understand manual that under promises and over delivers.

Written in a conversational tone, everyone from the most experienced service provider to a newbie trying to compete by offering better service and a liberal Customer Return Policy that understands the premise…

It’s called Customer return for a reason.
