30、客户因为一些琐事发了一封邮件给他们,而他们给予了无礼的回复。你认为收件者会选择你们公司吗?网络中消息传播很快。我需要三分钟的时间将邮件发给50-100个人。于是,因为你雇员一封无礼的邮件,你的公司可能在短短几分钟之类损失了100个现有或者潜在的客户。谈到我个人的经历,我就曾在网络上发送过一条关于电脑病毒的有益信息。有人认为这很讨厌,因为他们知道某些这类信息纯粹是恶作剧。毫无疑问,我收到的回信令我非常恼火。我怎么做的?我向他们道歉了。我访问他们的网站去了解他们从事的生意。我心里想如果有人向我了解他们所生产的产品信息,我会说:“别用这家公司。”我发现在网络上的新闻组中搜索我公司的名字来查看关于我的
