A Letter and Chocolate Go A Long Way
We recently had a less than ideal experience with the length of time it took to ship 3 dressers from San Francisco for one of our design firms in Manhattan. Sadly, our industry is full of these less than ideal experiences; nothing surprises me now. I am often surprised when I receive normal customer service–I am exceedingly surprised when I receive something out of the ordinary.
Kudos to Jiun Ho for their proactivity in customer service. I did not expect anything like this but was so pleasantly surprised that I felt compelled to blog. Below is the letter that I received. The letter was accompanied by a beautiful box of Mini Mosaics chocolates.
Needless to say, an “I’m Sorry” note and a box of chocolates go a long way with this girl.
