|
Written by Amanda Ryder
|
I just finished reading an article in Nova Scotia's The Chronicle Herald that explored how the age old mantra 'the customer is always right' may actually be bad for business. The article looks at how blindly following this policy makes employees unhappy and give pushy customers an unfair advantage. Is the customer always right at your centre? How do you deal with cranky shoppers?
