A lot of lip service is given to customer service. Unfortunately often it is the weakest link of a business relationship. Companies make their cuts in payroll here and outsource this roll far too often.

Customer service is reflected in the way a customer is treated from before they even make contact with a company. It is not just the role of one department of an organization.
