    We're from Flatbush Brooklyn

    Did you hear the Flatbush Brooklyn was just recognized as the Coolest city in the world! That's all we needed to hear this week!  So now, we reintroduce ourselves and our Brooklyn origin stories.  Join Ed and Joe as they start a discussion on cash (wow! this certainly as aged since it's first release in 2018) and go into the joys, bumps and bruises along the way growing up in Brooklyn.  Ed shares some incredible Brooklyn history with stories of how their days were spent pre-TV and we get a tour through his entrepreneurship journey which he started at around six year of age.   This episode is even better than the first time around.  We're so glad to have you here and hope you enjoy this episode.

Don't forget the power of resources! Companies like Grit PPO use call monitoring and coaching to turn their CSRs into rockstars.  And hey, remote warriors, you can totally conquer customer service too! Just make sure communication is clear and expectations are set from the start. Remember, even if a customer's being a bit…well,  extra, they deserve to be heard. By following the tips in this episode, you can turn those frowns upside down and keep your customers coming back for more (pest-free) service! So next time a Karen calls in, take a deep breath, channel your inner zen master, and remember, Colony Confidential has your back!
