Many organizations talk about customer service, but how many can say they've achieved “legendary customer service?” Gene Gray, president of Innovative IDM, just might have broken the code. As Gene phrased it, “Customer service is a way of life,” and he backs up the statement with facts.

At Innovative IDM:

  • Every 90 days, every employee hears about 180 examples of superior customer service in their "Hoopla Meetings."
  • 76 percent of Innovative IDM’s customers rate their service as “far better” than competitors.

Innovative IDM is a high-tech distributor of automation and controls products.
