The consequences of great and poor service are forever changed.</p> <p>Customer appetite has promoted this form of interaction to the very front of a race to understand. How do digital brands and empowered customers actually behave?</p> <p>Social Customer Service has become Marketing’s R&D lab and a listening hub for the rest of the organisation. It is now where corporate reputations are most likely to be won and lost.</p> <p>‘Delivering Effective Social Customer Service’ is a complete reference for achieving excellence in this new discipline. It caters to both novice and expert. It is perfect source material for service leaders and digital marketers to read together. Every CXO will recognise in the book a blueprint from which to build their next generation organisation. Even ambitious team leaders should snag a copy for instant subject matter expertise kudos!</p> <p>The centre of the book offers an in depth self-assessment of the competencies that matter. The book is jammed full of strategic insight, action lists, best practice tips and interviews. All the resources anyone needs to build a solid strategy and roadmap.</p> <p>Early adopter workshops based on the book have already taken place and will continue to be offered as another way of engaging with the book’s key lessons.

<p>Do you know what your customers are saying about you online? Sticking your head in the sand is not a strategy. The chatter about your organization is happening right now. Regardless of whether you like it or respond to it.</p> <p>Social media is the biggest thing happening to the customer service industry since the mid 1960s when modern day call centres were born.  Traditionally written customer service letters were replaced with live telephone conversations. Now social media has made this conversation public. It’s real-time and it’s global.</p> <p>Fear is understandable, but there is no going back.  The technology won’t uninvent itself.  Social is here to stay. Failure to learn new ways will leave your organization light-years behind the competition.</p> <p>The upside is that when you get it right for your customer, others can now witness how you actually look after them. Your behaviour becomes your credentials. The relationship between service, experience, loyalty, recommendation and purchasing behaviour has been widely proven. Effective customer service matters.</p> <p>Social customer service simply ups the stakes.</p>
<p>"We're in an era where customer service is being refined almost daily. Martin and Carolyn are gifted in exploring new territory, identifying the trends and issues that matter most, and making them accessible and relevant. The book is insightful, fun to read and thought provoking – a welcome addition to literature in the customer service profession."<br />—<b>Brad Cleveland, Author and Consultant, founding partner and former President/CEO, International Customer Management Institute (ICMI)</b></p> <p>"Social media doesn't have to be an unmanaged 'complaint box'. In <i>Delivering Effective Social Customer Service</i>, you'll learn how to use social media to improve service, engage with consumers and build loyal relationships."<br />—<b>Bob Thomson, Founder&CEO, CustomerThink Corp.</b></p>
