The Final Post and Win A Kindle Fire
As many of you know, we will be launching our new blog at the beginning of March customersthatstick.com. Like all good things, this Customer Service Experience blog must come to an end. Today’s post is the final one that will be published on IntenseFence.com.
It’s been fun here at IntenseFence, but this move has been a lot like moving to a new house — I’m already picking out my favorite room in the new place while the current place is a mess of boxes and trash bags.
Most of all (straining the analogy further), I hope that we will all still be friends when I move to a new neighborhood. And just like moving, I think I’ll bribe everyone with beer and pizzas to come watch the game at my new house. So, in that vein…
We are going to hold an awesome contest to celebrate the launch and to help publicize the move from the current domain.
First, the good stuff. We have three excellent prizes:

3rd Prize: The Welcomer Edge, Autographed Copy
The Welcomer Edge is a business book that unlocks the secrets to repeat sales. Its principles are appropriate for all sales and service environments. It’s about four distinct categories of service professionals — the people that will make any customer service function or department a success.
Customer service expert Richard Shapiro provides real life examples and anecdotes to help transform this concept into action. Welcomers are a rare breed of friendly and engaging people. Most importantly, they are innately intuitive, and understand that customers are people first. Identifying and recruiting welcomers is the key to a healthy consumer base.
