Its been one of those days - nothing has gone right, clients are complaining, people you rely on are making errors or forgetting tasks that they were quite capable of yesterday.

You can use customer service as a powerful way to set yourself apart from your competition. Its one of the strengths a small business has and, by emphasizing customer service, you can compete with larger companies who may offer more variety, lower prices, and other perks you cant afford.
