The Marketing Misfits

In this episode of Marketing Misfits, Norm Farrar and Kevin King dive into the importance of customer service and how going the extra mile can make all the difference in building brand loyalty. They share personal stories about exceptional (and not-so-exceptional) customer service experiences, from companies that go above and beyond to those that cut corners. The conversation covers how small gestures—like a bonus item or a fast response—can turn one-time buyers into repeat customers. Norm and Kevin also debate when it’s worth firing a client or letting a customer go, underscoring the value of focusing on those who align with your brand’s vision. Tune in for a candid discussion packed with insights on what really matters in building lasting customer relationships.
