I have been searching for the past half hour for a thread on calling customers you should have called a long time ago and I can't find it. I have 2 years' worth of customer care I'd like to follow up on.I don't have phone numbers for a lot of my really old contacts (some receipts got lost in our move!) so I don't have too, too many to call but I'd like to find some good scripts and ways to organize them so I can work through them in a logical manner.At this point, I'm not looking to book shows or anything - I just want to get back in the habit of doing CCC.Does anyone know where I can find a thread on this or does anyone have a good script they use for those 'forgotten' customers? I need to redeem myself.
 
As I've been told by an ED, fall on your sword. Just say Hey Susie I'm so sorry I haven't kept in contact with you. As part of being a Pampered Chef consultant is giving great customer service and I haven't with you. For that I am sorry. I'd like to make it up to you by telling you about the new products coming out, H&G specials, blah blah blah. Maybe offer to send the new catalog if thats okay with you.

How's that?
