Moneypenny has launched a new campaign to put good service at the heart of British business
(PRWEB UK) 18 February 2014 -- With staggering figures from Ombudsman Services suggesting that UK consumers complain about products and services every second of every day, with further millions of victims of poor service afraid to complain or not trusting companies to act, telephone answering specialist Moneypenny has launched a new campaign aimed at improving customer service and showcasing examples of how it should be done.
#ServiceFirst has been launched with Moneypenny’s must-do ‘10 Commandments’ offering advice on customer service for businesses of all sizes. Every month from now until the end of the year #ServiceFirst will highlight each of the commandments in turn, while inviting people to use the hashtag to nominate businesses and organisations who they feel are delivering great service.
Rachel Clacher, co-founder of Moneypenny and sister company Penelope, says: “In our business customer service is everything, so in an increasingly competitive marketplace and at a time when the British economy needs boosting, it’s unsettling to learn that so many businesses are getting it wrong. We want to champion great customer service and the values that go with it and hope #ServiceFirst will demonstrate that there are some very simple but highly effective techniques that can make all the difference to overall business success.”
To keep up to date with the #ServiceFirst 10 Commandments or to nominate a business, visit Twitter.com/moneypenny. In December 2014 from all the nominations, a #ServiceFirst judging panel will award a prize to the company demonstrating what it considers to be the best example of customer service during the year.
