DENVER, Nov. 10, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Almost everyone has experienced a flight delay or cancellation because of technical issues. The result is often the same—waiting for hours in line at an airport kiosk, or on the phone with the airline's customer service department, hoping to get placed on the next flight out. If you're really lucky, you might even get an "I'm sorry for the inconvenience" from the agent.
What if instead of an off-the-cuff apology, you were automatically credited 5,000 reward miles for the inconvenience? That was reality for Southwest Airlines passengers that were impacted by system outages back in July. It's a great example of a company going out of its way to make things right with its customers.
These types of stories are often buried under reports of bad customer experiences that result in frustrated customers and damaged brand reputations. That's why we've dedicated this issue of TeleTech's eNewsletter, Dialogue to celebrating the brands that are working hard to reverse that trend.
The November issue includes:
- A look at 25 brands that are bringing positive change to customer experience.
- An overview of how to empower frontline associates to deliver great service and drive sales.
- A look at where customer service has been, and where it's headed in the future.
- A timeline view of the history of customer service from the beginning of time (almost).
