Inhaltsangabe

Have you ever wondered what a service professional says after pulling away from your property?

After decades of running a small service business, Casey Johnson has encountered nearly every kind of customer: the amateur supervisor, the repeat caller, the online expert, the last-minute canceller, the reluctant payer, and the person whose “quick question” somehow becomes another half hour of unpaid work.

Is the Customer Always Right? offers a funny, candid look at what happens behind the scenes when customers and service businesses interact. It explains why a five-minute job does not have a five-minute price, why “since you’re already here” is rarely as simple as it sounds, and why the friendly family dog may have a very different opinion of the technician entering its yard.

This is not a book about attacking customers. Most customers are wonderful, and businesses could not survive without them. It is an invitation to see the other side of the appointment—the schedules, employees, expenses, safety concerns, misunderstandings, and occasional absurdities that customers may never realize exist.

With humor, real-world experience, and practical suggestions for working together, this book gives customers a view from behind the service counter while reminding business owners that they are not alone.

Whether you hire service professionals, manage employees, or run a small business yourself, you will probably recognize someone in these pages.

Hopefully, it isn’t you.
