These are favorable (to your company,) friendly opinions customers share when talking to friends, family or co-workers when they describe your company.
• What’s so memorable, special or favorable about your products/services? For example, after a sale, do you call a customer up and make sure the customer is happy? If not, how do you make it right for your customers so they ARE happy?
