Nowadays, people expect almost instant responses from a business; we all of stories of moving on from a prospective service provider or business because we weren’t able to reach someone in a timely manner.
Furthermore, one of the best ways to retain existing customers and get them to refer their friends and family to you is by delighting them with excellent service. At the Jewish Content Network, we’ve harnessed the power of a series of online tools to quickly capture and convert leads, and then deliver outstanding service to our advertisers.
