Outside In: The Power of Putting Your Customers at the Center of Your Business

Today, when consumers can easily compare products and pricing, managing their experience of your brand will determine whether your business thrives or fails. Based on more than 14 years of research, Outside In: The Power of Putting Your Customers at the Center of Your Business examines why we live today in the “age of the customer”–and why companies must do more than pay lip service to the idea of pleasing them.

For most industries, customer service is the greatest untapped source of decreased costs and increased revenues.  Outside In examines more than 80 case studies from around the world. It breaks down the essential matrix of relationships between a company’s partners, employees and customers that determine the quality of customer interactions.

Join Harley Manning at Live Talks Business to learn how you can move away from the bumper-sticker slogan “focus on the customer” to a self-sustaining competitive advantage.
