Batteries Included! Creating Legendary Service: Readers' Comments

"Nigel Barlow's book is simply brilliant! Is there anything left to say about superior customer service? The answer is obviously a resounding 'yes.' This book proves it! Incidentally, heed Barlow's words: 'Legendary' service is a far cry from even 'excellent' service!"

Tom Peters


"After ten years studying best practice, what a joy to find a book that exposes customer service as it really should be, with wonderful vignettes from real organisations to help us appreciate what can be done. A 'must read' for all SOCAP members.'

Tony Mosely, Executive Director
SOCAP (Society of Consumer Affairs Professionals)


"This is one of the most thought-provoking and stimulating books I've read on customer service in a long while. Not only is it an incredibly good read, but it does offer some profound and new insights into that elusive subject - how to create legendary service. I know at least one thousand companies which could benefit from the lessons in this book."

David Freemantle
author 'What Customers Like About You'
