From the point of view of an overall sales process engineering effort, customer service plays an important role in an organization's ability to generate income and revenue. From that perspective, customer service should be included as part of an overall approach to systematic improvement. One good customer service experience can change the entire perception a customer holds towards the organization.
  • Technical Documentation (Mentioned in 2.77% Job Postings): Is a generic term for the classes of information created to describe (in technical language) the use, functionality or architecture of a product, system or service.
