According to a startling article in Harvard Business Review, a recent study demonstrated that customers who were *emotionally* satisfied by a company's customer service exhibited the highest rate of loyalty, retention and profitability, whereas customers who were "technically" satisfied by a business exhibited the same retention rate as customers who were *dissatisfied*. In other words, unless you deliver soulful service that speaks to and from the heart, your customers will be no more loyal than if you had delivered sub-par service. It's not enough to be effective and efficient! If you want to emotionally satisfy your customers, Sales with Soul offers an easy-to-implement map, full of fresh insights.
