Stories from
the Trenches:

Service is many times treated as a low or no-profit department that you put up with in the name of customer service. It doesn't have to be. Tracking what service calls are generated by what products can go along way to making better purchase decisions. Not allowing service personnel to write-off calls under the guise of warranty and knowing which of your people are producing most of service money goes a long way to turning a loser into a gainer.
