Your Customers: Inside/Out.

There’s nothing more fundamental to one's wardrobe than that familiar pair of jeans. To maximize their long-term potential, jeans should be washed inside/out to protect the fabric’s integrity. There’s nothing more fundamental at Datamax than Creating Raving Fans® — but do we know our customers inside/out? Do we treat our coworkers like the internal customers that they are? When it comes to engaging coworkers, how do YOU roll?

Dear Datamax Family,

There’s an old saying that goes “to keep a customer demands as much skill as to win one.”

I would imagine we’re all pretty well-schooled in this concept. After all, at Datamax, our pursuit of “Creating Raving Fans” is built around the idea of providing a fast response to needs, resource resolution to issues, and demonstrating honesty, trust, and value at every interaction.

The Role of a Expert Juggler.

Barry Simon

Simon says ...

Great customer service (or, in our case, Creating Raving Fans,) takes a lot of collective skill. You’ve honed those skills. Have you applied them to your coworkers?- Barry Simon

 

Taking a valued "CUSTOMER" to lunch... priceless.

You can't put a price tag on feeling like what you do is important. In appreciation for everything Arkansas biller Kim Clark does for Ken Allison's Sales Group in Little Rock, his entire team took her out to lunch last month. That's Internal Customer Service in Action!
