"Internet service was the newest division of our corporation. We knew that our helpdesk technicians were technically qualified but lacked customer service experience. We also knew that the initial customer contact would be critical in establishing our reputation in a highly competitive technology. Therefore, we asked Linda to develop a customer service program tailored to our specific industry. She implemented a program that was exactly what we were looking for. Her customer service and technology expertise proved to be the perfect combination. ...Kudos to Linda!"
