Work ethic
Customers should ALWAYS feel that their requests are TOP priority. I believe in open, frequent communication, and full-transparency with regards to support requests.
I pride myself on the level of support I provide. When your clients experience your sincerity, you not only show YOUR loyalty, but you ensure that you will gain THEIR loyalty in the process.
anything less is unacceptable
Never leave your clients hanging...
Should always give it your all
