Have you ever heard someone say, “I’ll get back to you,” only to never hear from them again? Or worse, have you been the one who said it?

The Customer Isn’t Always Right
In business, there’s a mantra that’s been recited so many times it’s become gospel: “The customer is always right.” But let’s be honest – it’s not entirely true. Customers aren’t always right. Sometimes they’re misinformed, unreasonable, or just plain wrong. But how you handle those moments when a customer is wrong makes all the difference. […]
