Welcome to the first Customer Service Carnivale of 2011! This edition is filled with great stories, useful tips, and helpful resources. Yes, it is all good reading! So grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and enjoy...
If you're looking for a job or meeting with a potential client, I highly recommend reading Erin Pavlina's post, How I Got Every Job I Ever Wanted. We could all take cues about how to interact with people and potential co-workers regardless of what your position is.
What are customers saying about your company online? If you don't know, you probably should read How to Manage Customer Reviews Online.
In today's information overloaded world, do you know if you're annoying your customers? Find out when marketing gets annoying.
The other day I called a company and the person who answered the phone rambled so quickly through her long script. That's why I'm glad there are articles like this for companies to read: Sample Business Telephone Script.
In order to be successful in business and influence people, you have to be a strong leader or have a mentor who inspires you. If you're looking for inspiration, check out 15 Inspiring Biographies for Aspiring Leaders.

That concludes this edition. Submit your blog article to the next edition of the customer service carnival via the submission form. Past posts and future hosts can be found on our blog carnival index page.
