This is the one 'must read' book on customer care..........
A wonderfully informative book that stands out amidst the plethora of customer care offerings. Even though the field is changing so quickly, Michael Cusack's book won't date because of (1) the way he applies the lasting principle of soundly balancing technology, process and people, and (2) the masterful manner in which he draws on historical and current knowledge and trends in order to cover likely future developments. Cusack is a true thought-leader who writes to express not to impress, and who freely and comprehensively shares at the detailed level. On Line Customer Care demands to be read by every CEO, Customer Service Director and Service Agent who aspires to customer care excellence.

Must reading for anyone concerned with customer lock-in
Online Customer Care is a rich compendium of important insights into people, technologies, and trends affecting businesses who recognize that it costs us 10 times more to win new customers than to retain the ones we already have. Cusack writes clearly, and from experience. His careful analysis of the myriad technologies, human-factors, and trends affecting an organization's ability to automate relationships through quick and relevant solutions should be on the desktop of every CEO who understands "it's where the revenue comes from."
