In today’s customer experience driven world, aiming for a 10 really is the best option.  If there’s room for improvement, what’s to stop your customers from shopping around and looking for a better experience elsewhere?

Because the pharmacy industry faces so much competition, the customer experience is vitally important to the success of your pharmacy.  Finding the best ways to get perfection (or as close to it as you can) from your pharmacy staff is key.  This week, take some time to think about where your pharmacy may fall short.  Then stay tuned to the RMS blog later this week for more tips on achieving the best possible customer experience.
