Over the past few years, I’ve noticed a sharp decline in customer service standards. Long wait times, poor communication, and a lack of genuine care—these issues seem more common than ever.

As someone passionate about customer experience, I can’t help but ask: Why has this happened? Is it cost-cutting? Over-reliance on automation? A shift in workplace culture?

We all know that customer retention is far more cost-effective than acquisition, yet many businesses seem to be pushing customers away. A well-trained, motivated team can turn interactions into revenue-generating opportunities—so why aren’t more companies investing in this?

I’d love to hear from others in the industry. What are your thoughts? Have you seen a decline in service quality? More importantly, how can we fix it?
