The Problems with Poor Customer Service, How Companies Can Enhance Customer Service, and Strategies for How Brands Can Win Back Lost Customers , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 41min
This book sheds light on the problems with offering poor customer service and elucidates how companies can enhance customer service. Moreover, strategies for how brands can win back disaffected customers are also delineated. It is almost inconceivable to fathom that a preponderance of frontline employees do not care about providing stellar customer service even though their brand’s longevity and profitability depends on the quality of their resourcefulness in assisting the customer. The cost of a company having eminently poor customer service is quite devastating in the long haul to the company’s profitability. Furthermore, offering sub-par customer service can adversely impact a business in multiple facets beyond comprised profitability. Poor customer service not only elicits negative brand recognition, a comprised brand reputation, the loss of brand loyalty, the forfeiture of future lifetime customers, and a reduction of brand equity but can also lead to higher employee turnover rates.Moreover, offering abysmal customer service not only culminates in reduced employee morale but also causes negative word of mouth about the brand to be rapidly disseminated on social media websites like a wildfire. Inefficient customer service instances can transpire when even part of time is spent arguing with customers. This will almost always lead to unsatisfied customers.Treating customers without any respect and leaving their issues unresolved is one the fastest way to become infamous for having the most terrible customer service. It is estimated that in the United States alone, over 83 billion dollars of potential sales revenue each year is forgone due to customers receiving poor customer service. Irate, incompetent, and argumentative customer service representatives contribute to tarnishing a brand’s reputation and having their company succumb to negative net losses. ungekürzt.

The head is well-proportioned to the body, and the skull is slightly rounded. The drop ears are low-set and heavily feathered. The eyes are dark, the nose black, and the muzzle of medium length and slightly tapered. The long, silky coat that sweeps or hangs close to the ground gives the Maltese an almost ornamental appearance. The long hair on the head may be tied in a topknot or left hanging. The coat color is pure white.The Maltese moves in a buoyant, flowing gait. It is gentle, affectionate, intelligent, responsive, and trusting. A good family dog, Maltese pups are lively, playful, vigorous, and they generally enjoy learning tricks. They can be snappy with raucous children.

Travel Tales Collections: Toilet Stories , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 78min
Travel Tales Collection, Toilet Stories, No. 8, March 2015, is part of Michael Brein's Collections travel tales series. It contains some of the best travel stories from Michael's huge collection of travel tales. These are stories that he has gathered in interviews with nearly 1,750 world travelers and adventurers during his four decades of travel, in which he visited more than 125 countries throughout the world. Travel Tales Collections are groups of very interesting similar travel stories on a variety of very specific travel subjects, themes, or countries. Topics include close calls, great escapes, pickpocketing, scams, safety, and security in travel. Eventually, several hundred collections, on all sorts of specific travel subjects, themes, and countries, will be available. In the previous issue, Travel Tales Collections, No. 7, Feb 2015, I included a selection of food and drink experiences that you can have in your travels. Therefore, it is only fitting, after covering food and drink travel stories, that we now turn our attention to what inevitably comes next: namely, the subject of toilets in travel. After all, toilet experiences are an unfortunate yet essential aspect of living that, like it or not, we all must come to terms with, whether on the home front or in strange exotic foreign lands. The necessity of dealing with toilets, where to find them; what to do about them; and how to use them even, elicits from many travelers nothing less than abject terror. They are often beset with culture shock issues almost at every turn, especially in third-world countries. Thus when nature calls, and you have barely a clue as to what to do about it or where to go...well, for many it is horribly anxiety-provoking, and for others nothing less than debilitating. ungekürzt.

The Backslider , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 832min
Recognized as a Mormon classic 20 years after its release, The Backslider features longstanding Christian conflicts played out in a scenic, sparsely populated area of Southern Utah. A young ranch hand, Frank Windham, conceives of God as an implacable enemy of human appetite. He is a dedicated sinner until family tragedy catapults him into an arcane form of penitence preached among frontier Mormons. He is saved by an epiphany that has proved controversial among readers, either interpreting it as an extreme impiety or celebrating it as a moving and entirely plausible rendering of a biblical theme in a Western setting.Frank comes into contact with a host of rural and urban characters. Of central importance is his Lutheran girlfriend, Marianne, whom Frank seduces, begrudgingly marries, and eventually loves. Frank’s extended family is just a generation removed from polygamy and still energized by old-time grudges and deprivations. Along the way, Frank encounters a closeted secular humanist, a polygamist prophet, a psychiatrist, a mason, government employees, college professors, lawyers, and entrepreneurs - all drawn with heightened realism reminiscent of Charles Dickens or the grotesque forms of William Faulkner and Flannery O’Connor.The story engages listeners as it alternates almost imperceptibly between Frank’s naive consciousness and the more informed awareness of its narrator. It can be listened to as a love story, a satiric comedy, or a dark and sobering study of self-mutilation. Shifting from one to another, it builds suspense and elicits complex emotions, among them a profound sense of compassion. More joyous than cynical, it sympathizes deeply with the plight of all of God’s backsliders. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Charles Kahlenberg.

Let the Church Say Amen": A Documentary About the Downtrodden Black Neighborhood of Urban America by David Petersen , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 31min
They dance. They sing. They speak in tongues and shout - so the Reverend Bobby Perkins elicits. Dauntless, a stand-up Christian, Reverend Bobby Perkins preaches in the subways of Washington, D.C. where he has a heart for the drug addicts. His church members preach on the streets and speak to the lowly; real conversation goes on in this documentary. These are real people, and you may not have met them before. Can one call what is done in his church, "Performance Preaching," as in "Performance Poetry?" His work is a performance of being filled with the Holy Spirit, as those in the pews are moved and moving to the Holy Spirit. This is certainly a life of following the dictum. The movie directed by David Petersen is a moving and extraordinary documentary in an oft verite style, both in color and black and white. Message gets through to the audience in this film, as does action, attitude, and scenery of places in Washington, D.C. that are known for store front churches - like Pastor Perkins' in the neighborhood where his is on a corner. There are other churches like his in their neighborhood. Not solely a religion film about a church, the movie, "Let the Church say Amen," is David Petersen and friends' vision of a life in the poor, black neighborhood of forgotten people and streets with crime, drugs, and just ugly nastiness. There is more than the message of church, religion, and community alone here. There is a cinematic depiction of what is in the genre of drama and artful realism. ungekürzt. Language: English.

The Hands of War: A Tale of Endurance and Hope, From a Survivor of the Holocaust , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 368min
An inspiring account from one of history’s darkest moments. Marione Ingram grew up in Hamburg, Germany, in the late 1930s and early 1940s. She was German. She was Jewish. She was a survivor. This is her story. As a young girl, Marione was aware that people of the Jewish faith were regarded as outsiders, the supposed root of Germany’s many problems. She grew up in an apartment building where neighbors were more than happy to report Jews to the Gestapo. Marione’s mother attempted suicide after receiving a deportation notice - Marione revived her, but then the bombs started to fall, as the Allies leveled the city in eight straight days of bombings. Somehow Marione and her mother and sister survived the devastating firestorms - more than 40,000 perished, and almost the same numbered were wounded. Marione and her family miraculously escaped and sought shelter with a contact in the countryside, who grudgingly agreed to house them in a shed for more than a year. With the war drawing to a close, they went west, back to Hamburg. There they encountered Allied troops, who reinstalled the local government (made up of ex-Nazis) in order to keep order in the country. Life took on the air of what it used to be. Jews were still second-class citizens. Marione eventually took shelter at a children’s home in a mansion once owned by wealthy Jewish bankers. There she met Uri, a troubled orphan and another one of the “Children of Blankenese.” Uri’s story, a bleak tale of life in the concentration camps, explores a different side of the Nazi terror in Germany.In this stirring account of World War II through the eyes of a child, the author’s eloquent narrative elicits compassion from listeners. ungekürzt.

For instance, someone with a stressful and unpleasant childhood in which they experienced a life of minimalism and having to cope with having far less than their childhood friends may feel compelled to be materialistic and compulsively shop as an adult in order to never experience materialistic deprivation ever again.The desire to compulsively shop can be genuine as i ungekürzt.
