HDI Tip of the Day
“Key points of a good customer service letter explaining service calls priority: Acknowledge the customer’s request for repair. Explain the status of the customer’s service agreement.

Close with a positive statement about your service capabilities; Make the repair process sound as routine as possible.” -- The Complete Customer Service Letter Book by Edward W. Werz and Sally Germain
