  18. PEOPLE ARE THEMOST IMPORTANT AND MOST EXPENSIVE COMPONENT BECAUSE CUSTOMERS EXPECTATION IS THAT THEY ARE ASSISTED BY FRIENDLY, EFFICIENT AND COMPETENT PEOPLE.FINDING QUALIFIED PEOPLE TO DELIVER EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE IS DIFFICULT, COSTLY AND TIME CONSUMING

  19. CUSTOMER SERVICE EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE IS THE GOAL OF ANY ORGANISATIONOR BUSINESS. THIS MEANS THAT CUSTOMERS SHOULD RECEIVE VALUE FOR MONEY. THUS MAXIMUM VALUE FOR THE PRODUCT OR SERVICE WHICH IS PURCHASED. THE DEFINITION OF “VALUE” IS INFLUENCED BY EVERY CUSTOMER SERVICE ENCOUNTER (EXPERIENCE). THIS LEADS TO WHAT IS KNOWN AS THE “MOMENT OF TRUTH”.
