EDITORIAL METHOD / 01

An operating point of view.

These articles look at the front door of a service business: how a customer finds you, reaches you, gets an answer, books, and knows what happens next.

Use the guides as decision support. Verify any benchmark against your own call records, forms, calendar, and customer value. Where an article relies on an external rule or claim, it should link the source beside the assertion.
