Debt Elimination Scam
May people these days have a problem with mounting debt. The average person is well below the bad credit limit and is in desperate need to fix it. Some people are so desperate to reduce their debt that they are seeking quick and easy ways of repairing their credit. This demand has introduced us to the debt elimination scam. For a large upfront fee of $2,500 - $3,000, the organizers of this debt elimination program scam will provide the victim with a special legal document . This document is then presented to the victims' bank, Mortgage Company, finance company, or other lending institution in an attempt to satisfy the victims debt. The document the victims receive is of course bogus or fake. These so called, debt elimination programs are reminiscent of the tax protesters' tax evasion schemes seen throughout the 1990s. The purported legal documents that are used in the debt elimination program scams include fake financial instruments that claim to eliminate the borrower's debt. The instruments usually question the authenticity of financial obligations, and often refer to a specific government agency (such as the Federal Reserve) in an attempt to support their claims. Debt elimination program scams that claim they are approved by the Federal Reserve are bogus. The Federal Reserve does not approve, and is in no way involved in any program aimed at eliminating anyone's debt obligations. Sadly, most of the people who stumble on these schemes were originally looking for legitimate ways to manage their debt. There are effective ways that you can legally manage your debt. You can go through a credit councilor. They will offer you great, professional advice about fixing your debts and may even refer you to a consolidator or loan company. You can seek a debt consolidator. They will work with your creditors on your behalf in order to lower your monthly payments and much more. You can also go and sign up for a credit union. Credit unions are much like banks in that they will take your paychecks and use them to pay your debts for you. Credit unions will also place some of your money in a savings account for you so that you will have some money to work with. John Parsons is founder of CorporateNarc.Com?.

Call Center Services - An Ever Increasing Demand
Are your company's call center services all that they could be? Even centers that were state of the art a decade or so ago might be out of date and inadequate today. As technology expands, so do clients' expectations regarding communication. Nowadays, a client will normally expect to be able to contact a company representative more or less twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, either by phone, fax or email. Clients expect a quick response and courteous, efficient service regardless of how the communication is carried out. Though the technology to support this level of service is readily available, it can be a challenge for call centers to keep up with. Moreover, the quality and scope of outgoing calls remains important, as global competition for clients is fiercer than ever.

10 Customer Service Quality Statements to Measure up Against
It might sound quick and simple, to say how well your business does in
satisfying it's customers. Hearing such as:-"We're increasing our
turnover by 14% year to date""Our customer complaints are now less
than 4% or our transactions"...might sound like music to your
ears, but that's just the time you need to be very careful.A regular
measurement of where you are as your organisation, not depending on some of the
easy-to-fake figures, might just make the difference in how well you are doing
now, and into the future.Try these quality statements and set up a
mechanism whereby you review them monthly - yes, that's right, monthly. This
needs to be thorough and objective. And maybe even the scores made by a cross-
section of your people in all areas of your business - then you get objectivity
and a true picture of how you are scoring. It is a great activity to score each of
these out of 10, make a tracker month by month and each time you review, ask
yourself the question:-"What would we need to do to move our score up
by 3 points"Do it point by point and then, after you have that
3-point question, work out a monthly action plan, so that step-by-step, you
gradually improve. (Note:- If you are too near a score out of 10 to have three points to go - upgrade your statement!).Then and only then will your improvement be sustainable and
you can reset the questions over time to a higher standard. Then you truly will
be The Best in class!The Quality Statements:-
We use a variety of staff to monitor customer service on a regular and consistent basis
We know and can clearly state our customer groups
We listen to customers about our products and proactively seek to redress issues
We notice and congratulate our people and teams when they perform well
Senior management are fully and visibly engaged in customer activities
Our people enjoy the challenge of changes
Our organisation and our people have aligned values
Our customers find working with us easy and pleasurable
We know how our people feel about working here and always respond to make it better
We have teams and individuals who can respond quickly to changes circumstances, whatever they are
Keep a track of these - visually represent it somewhere very publicly for your
people. Involve many of your them in monitoring, finding solutions and
taking accountability for change, where needed and your business, your people and
you will thrive.One final point. Starting is good, being able to demonstrate your
success in 12 months is another thing - as is still doing this review at that time.

Customer Service Has Moved Toward Customer Care
As I waited for an answer to my VCR inquiry from a stereo company, the recording stated a "customer care" representative would be available shortly. At that moment, I realized it's finally catching on everywhere. With aging baby boomers, world events and additional pressures in today's society; it is "customer care" that has evolved in our economy. We have moved from a manufacturing economy to a service economy and are currently leaning towards a "servicecare" economy. As we live in a high tech-high button touch environment, many personal contacts have been decreased making each customer interaction more important than ever to corporate imagery. For example, if you call for computer tech support, the representative often makes it a point to address you by first name. If it's the bank credit card company, they may ask "How are you doing today?" This makes the customer feel less like a number and more like a human being.
Cultivating the Trust Factor
In today's highly competitive economy, it is difficult to
maintain a significant market advantage based on your
professional skills alone. Developing a trusting relationship
with your clients is key to your success. No matter what business
you are in, the most powerful value-added you can contribute in
any business relationship is the trust factor.
