Case Study FAQ

Here are some Frequently Asked Questions about this assignment.

Q1) The company's web site doesn't show anything about their customer service reputation, policy etc., what do I do?
A: Do your homework, which means do your research. The company's web site will not be sufficient for objective information. Make phone calls, look for articles online, go to the library-a company's web site is a starting point. Your job is to use all of the information available to you through all outlets to address these questions. Claiming to be unable to find any information is not a viable option. If this is the case, choose another company.

Q2) How can I tell if their service is good or bad?
A: Start with your own experience, and choose companies with which you are familiar. Read everything you can find about the company and soon, a picture will emerge that tells you a story about their service levels, their approach to business, and the relative happiness of their customers. Based on this information, you can formulate your own analysis of the relative effectiveness of the company's service efforts.
