“If you are not happy with us, please let us know. If you are happy with us, please let everyone else know.”
This is the maxim which most leading companies strongly follow. In fact, in today’s era of hyper-digital connectivity, an unhappy customer can ensure that everyone else knows as well by simply putting a status that can influence the individuals in their social media networks. Is it any surprise that in today’s times, the fate of a company regardless of its size and turnover stands to significantly gain or lose with the happiness delivered to their customers.
