<p>Customers have never been more important than they are today, and the most successful organizations have realized the power of the customer experience and the need to create a customer-centric culture. One such successful organization is Rosetta Stone. They have not only implemented a complete customer-centric culture, but have fully embraced it; focusing on their customers&#8217; success. In fact, their customer support is called &#8216;customer success&#8217; and their support agents are &#8217;success agents.&#8217; This customer-focused environment, including multi-channel customer service, enables them to further promote their philosophy of listening to their customers and becoming better.</p>
<p>In this webinar, join<strong> Senior Vice President, Customer Success at Rosetta Stone, Jay Topper</strong> and featured guest, customer service and customer experience expert, <strong>William Band of Forrester Research</strong> to discover how a better customer experience can improve customer loyalty and your bottom line.<span id="more-591"></span></p>
