Bosses In Construction

Point blank, that’s just a waste of an amazingly valuable exercise and business...

The researchers found that those businesses focused more on getting new customers than keeping the current ones. Nurturing current clients is much more cost-effective than attracting new clients. Forbes.com states that profitability increases with customer retention. So, making customer service a high priority should be very high on every small business owner’s list. Making it a priority requires that we...
