These companies limit the power of their first level of support, forcing customers to ask for a manager or supervisor, at which point they are put on hold and must repeat their story. In short, customers are able to get some type of remuneration for or relief from their problem only if they are willing to make the effort, spend a lot of time, and metaphorically stomp their feet hard enough. An old saying comes to mind: "The squeaky wheel gets the oil."
Many things are taking place:
Mackay: Businesses, and customers, have a need for speed - StarTribune.com
“Pushing the envelope” is a phrase that gained popularity with American test pilots such as Chuck Yeager and John Glenn in the 1950s. Each aircraft they flew was said to have an “envelope” of performance. In other words, it was designed to fly safely up to a certain speed for a certain distance at a certain altitude. The job of test pilots was to “push the envelope” by making the plane go faster, farther and higher.
It’s difficult to overstate the importance of speed in business. This century’s business is dominated by speed. Speed is no longer a luxury; it’s a necessity. Having a great product isn’t enough anymore. People expect things faster, cheaper and better. Every part of your business needs to be up to speed.
