We’ve all experienced it. You need to get something done and the customer service person you are relying on says, “I can’t help”. The solution requires a little bit of empathy, perhaps some creativity and a lot of common sense.

They really don’t know if our technicians are technically better than our competitors or if the advice we are providing is the best they can expect from anyone. Because most customers cannot truly assess these things, they look for tangible evidence that gives them clues.
