Summary

During my career as a business owner and a team lead at Omaha Steaks, customer relations was and still is a priority in dealing with the public. Especially as a business owner, interaction and relations with my customer was always at the top of my list. It meant whether they came back and shopped at my store and continued to use my services. I always went out of my way for the best possible customer service. It is what made my company successful.
