Cincom Sponsors Webcast: "Satisfied Customers Tell Three Friends, Angry Customers Tell 3,000"

Pete Blackshaw, executive vice president of strategic services, Nielsen Online, will present a live webcast, " Satisfied Customers Tell Three Friends, Angry Customers Tell 3,000 ," on June 30, 2008 at 11 a.m. EDT and 8 a.m. PDT. The Cincom Synchrony (TM)-sponsored event features real customer-service stories from Blackshaw's experience working with and studying Fortune 500 brands such as Toyota, Dell, Nike, Sony, General Motors, Hershey, Unilever, Nestle, Lexus and Bank of America.

Modeled after his soon-to-be-released book of the same title, Blackshaw's webcast is designed especially for customer-service professionals. Through what he calls "consumer-generated media" -- blogs, social networking pages, message boards, and product review sites -- even a single disgruntled customer can broadcast his complaints to an audience of millions.

Blackshaw's webcast shows managers, marketers, and business leaders how the internet is changing customer expectations and behavior; how to establish and maintain credibility for your brand through authenticity; and how to form relationships built on openness and trust.

Registration is at www.cincom.com/blackshaw . The book, "Satisfied Customers Tell Three Friends, Angry Customers Tell 3,000," is published by Doubleday Business and will be available July 8, 2008.
