Many companies are focusing on how to shorten the time the customer is on the line or using a lot of resources moving the customer to self-service systems, so that they forget that it is not about the call, but about the customer.This is behavior driven.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; Pay agents to shorten queue times, they shorten queue times. Pay them to move customers to self-service systems; they move customers to self-service systems. And that so effectively, that the customer got forgotten in the process.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.returnonbehaviormagazine.com/main-articles/prerequisites-for-cross--and-up-selling-3.html&quot; title=&quot;Article at Return on Behavior Magazine &quot;&gt;Read the full article at Return on Behavior Magazine&lt;/a&gt;

                    &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 10pt&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Persistence with loyalty development undoubtedly led to a surplus on the bottom line for Andersen &amp;amp; Martin - the largest car dealer in Denmark, and simply proves the invaluable link between loyal co-workers and loyal customers.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;In this article Peter Winther discusses the case as it were for Andersen &amp;amp; Martini, a Copenhagen based public company.
