Customer Service Guru Dr. Chip Bell Releases Provocative New Book that Reveals How to Turn Good Service into Unforgettable Service that Drives Loyalty, Growth and Profits
Lake Oconee, Georgia (PRWEB) February 10, 2015 -- Today, Chip Bell announced the launch of an inspiring new book titled,“Sprinkles: Creating Awesome Experiences Through Innovative Service.” In this sequel to “The 9 ½ Principles of Innovative Service,” Dr. Chip Bell, author or coauthor of seven national best-selling books, shares how to significantly enhance and enrich your customers’ experiences, ramp up customer acquisition, increase deep customer loyalty, and grow your reputation and bottom line.
Available now on Amazon.com and 800CEORead.com, Bell outlines how today’s customers crave special and unique service much like what sprinkles bring to a cupcake or cookie. Using a gourmet metaphor, he shares techniques for transforming a good customer experience into one that is so special and distinctive it catapults the customer experience to a whole new level. If Cirque du Soleil were to write a book on customer service, it would read like “Sprinkles!”
“Customers’ satisfaction with service continues to decline. That’s why a fresh, ingenious approach to the customer experience is more important than ever,” said Bell, who has served as consultant and/or speaker to such renowned brands as Ritz-Carlton Hotels, Harley-Davidson, USAA, Universal Hollywood, IBM, Marriott, Cadillac and AMEX. “If your service is pretty good, it is not good enough today. Customers want service with a delightful surprise—a cherry on top. That’s why the best service is value-unique, not just value-added.”
