Seth Godin challenges the broken state of customer service by arguing that companies are trapped between customers demanding instant perfection and businesses cutting costs wherever possible.

“The rapid proliferation of choice has taught us to demand that everything should be cheap.”
“Make it really clear to the caller that there is a problem, that the caller deserves great service and that things will be dealt with.”
