Ask yourself an honest question…

Are you (Is your business) Good, Great or Exceptional?

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately…a lot of businesses are Good or maybe even Great, but few are Exceptional. (I agree with Tom Peters observations regarding customer service…one aspect of being Exceptional)

I think the difference between Good and Exceptional are the little things - Like:

• You follow through with what you said you were going to do.
• You return phone calls and e-mails promptly.
• You surprise them with a kind word or gestures.
• You send them ideas that you think will help their business improve.
• You make their problems your own and do everything you can to fix them.

It takes work and effort to be Exceptional, but it is worth the investment. Get in the mindset of being Exceptional everyday and reap the rewards of higher customer satisfaction and more word of mouth referrals.

In this busy world, companies that take the time to be Exceptional stand out.

Do you have examples of Exceptional service? Leave a comment…
