Successories’ Buzz Aldrin joins Dancing with the Stars

March 2, 2010

The man on the moon is dancing with the stars. Astronaut Buzz Aldrin will take one quick step for man, one spectacular waltz for mankind when he joins the celebrity lineup on ABC’s Dancing With The Stars reality dance competition.

The second man to walk on the moon will now be the oldest contestant on Dancing with Stars at the ripe age of… 80! (Jazz hands everyone!)

The show will air in the U.S. starting March 22.

With Successories’ Design Your Inspiration, you can customize and personalize the inspirational figure that is Buzz Aldrin. Click here to check it out –>

The Story of Buzz Alrin:

On Sunday July 20, 1969, as the Lunar Module Pilot of Apollo 11, he became one of the first humans to set foot on another world. As he gazed upon the unusual majesty of the moon in its starkness and monochromatic hues, he comprehended a beauty never before seen. He called it: “magnificent desolation.” He said that every step on the moon was a virginal experience. Exploring a place that had never before been seen by human eyes, upon which no foot had stepped, or hand touched, was awe-inspiring.

He started as a West Point cadet and went on to become an Air Force fighter pilot meriting the Distinguished Flying Cross medal for uncommon bravery and skill during 66 combat missions. He then earned his Doctorate at MIT which focused on spacecraft docking techniques that are still in use today, securing for himself the nickname: Dr. Rendezvous.

For those few glorious hours that he walked on the moon, he united humankind in a way never before experienced. “They came in peace for all mankind” were the words etched on the plaque left behind. As one of the greatest explorers of all time and in his ongoing work for the advance of humanity, Buzz Aldrin never ceases to… INSPIRE

Why Customer Service Matters

January 25, 2010

Why Customer Service Matters

Get The Facts on Customer Service:

Fact: Customers spend up to 10% more for the same product with better service.

Fact: Customers tell anywhere from 9 to 12 people when they get good service.

Fact: When customers receive poor service, they tell up to 20 people.

Fact: Studies have shown that it takes a customer as little as ten seconds to pick up on the attitude (bad or good) of the person they are speaking to!

Creating a Customer Service Culture

When people think of customer service, they think of the front-line workers, the ones that come in direct contact with the customer. But the truth is, everyone in your company has an impact on the customer experience: The receptionist who greets visitors, the IT worker who maintains the systems to take orders, and the marketing staff that communicates information about your products. Everyone touches the customer in some way. This is why you must develop a customer service culture — from the top down.

Here are some simple steps you can take to create a Customer-Friendly Organization:

Communicate to every level the importance of customer service and the behaviors you are looking for regarding that service.

Recognize employees when they demonstrate positive service behaviors, both formally with awards and informally with certificates, medallions and hand-written notes of thanks.

Constantly give specific examples of good customer service.

Emphasize the concept of internal customer service. And treat your employees well! The quality of service they offer your customers is directly related to how the employees are treated themselves.

Empower your employees to make decisions and break the “rules” to satisfy a customer.

Train your people—all your people—on this customer service-based culture from the moment they are hired.
