Be Relentless
Make Customer Service Your Core Principle

Hi [firstname|there],

With the pandemic customer service has been put on the back burner for most US firms. Customer service is the worst I have seen it in 40 years. After months of a lock down you would think firms would be ecstatic to get customers and grow their business. I see just the opposite.

Businesses are no longer relentless with their customer service and are letting down their clientele. Find out what it takes to be relentless and go above an beyond with your customer service during these unprecedented times. 

All the best,

Amazon Entering Health Care in US

Amazon one of the largest and the most customer focused company in the US has just started to offer a Health Care operation to their employees in the Dallas area near their fulfillment center and operation facility.
Amazon expects to establish 20 health centers in five cities across the U.S. , improving access and care for more than 115,000 associates and their families.
 
Healthcare in the US is expensive and dysfunctional. Everything Amazon does is with Speed and Customer Care. They will eventually provide some real competition to an industry where no one knows the price or seems to care.
 
I am excited to see Amazon finally enter health care. Let the competition which with better  prices and convenience open up an industry that is ripe for everything Amazon delivers.
