Xtreme Customer Care from A to Z...

...Individualized Customer Service training modules targeted to specific issues for businesses in the 21st Century.

Hi, I’m Heidi McCarthy, and I’ve worked in many different environments from large corporations to waitressing, to running a small business to being a solo-entrepreneur. Since I am also a consumer of the goods and services from all these different types of businesses I’ve seen how businesses operate from both sides.


I’ve seen the holes, missed opportunities and outright ‘bad’ customer care. That is what drove me to  create “Winning Over Your Toughest Customer”. And it is what led to the development of this modular training program.


There is hope for you and your business. Often times it is simply a lack of knowledge or understanding that causes you to not meet your customer’s expectations. I will help you identify your client’s expectations. Show you how to look through your client’s eyes to see your business as your clients see it – in person, on the phone, on the internet and more. And I will help you tweak your business to be that best that it possibly can be.



Thanks again for the great (Keep Customers Coming Back) class. 
I will certainly let others know of your services.

Most Customer Service training today is still geared to a 1980’s or 1990’s economy. These programs fail to take into account how both businesses and customers have changed because of the internet and email.

Having worked for the past 15 years for a business where I worked from home and 80% or more of my customer contact and research was done through my computer, I understand the importance and the many pitfalls of doing business in the 21st Century.

So what I am offering to you is modularized training that is geared to how business functions today, and is designed so that you can pick and choose those subjects that will be of the most benefit to you and your team.

Each module will run approximately 1.5 hours. The cost for 1 module is $77.00. However, if you sign up for two or more modules, or send 2 or more people from the same company to one module, the price is $67.00 per module per person.  An additional 7% discount ($5.00) is available for members of the Prescott Valley Chamber of Commerce and The Winner$Circle. Call 928.772-3262 or email info@ToughestCustomer for more information.

If you are not completely satisfied with the class, let me know at the close of the class and I will happily refund your investment.
