Mr. Mattress Discounters,
It has been said that, “There is no such thing as customer service anymore.” This broad statement is sometimes accompanied by assertions that people “don’t practice common courtesy,” or “won’t go the extra mile,” or “treat you as though your business is not important to them.”
We are taking a moment to write to you because your employee, Mr. Edward L, has defied the conventional wisdom in this regard on all counts. We wish to highlight what we perceive to be his qualities as your company’s representative.
We initially came to the store on Rockville Pike to look for a new bed while shopping around to compare selections and pricing. We were welcomed by Mr. Tracy J. who took the time to explain to us the different mattress types and had politely, patiently and professionally answered all of our questions. He provided us with much useful information and never made us feel pressured. We were impressed by his demeanor and would like to suggest that he might be of great value to your establishment.
After visiting other stores, we called the branch with additional questions and spoke to Mr. L., the store manager, as Mr. J. was not available. Mr. L. proved to be in full knowledge of policies, specifications and pricing and answered our every question. Although we were offered discounted rates and incentives to make the purchase at a competing store, we made it a point to keep our business with your company due to the truly pleasant shopping experience and great customer care.
Upon our arrival to the store, we met with Mr. L. who personally proceeded to assist with our purchase while providing useful information which helped us in making our selection and in feeling confident with our choices. His knowledge, thoroughness, patience, and politeness enabled us to easily arrange for our needs. This outcome reflects well upon your company, and most especially upon Mr. L. as store manager.
We decided to write this letter of commendation on behalf of Mr. L. because we were impressed by his professionalism and his helpfulness. We intend on making another purchase and will be keeping our business with this store.
Sincerely,
I. & D. Harel
