Customer Service - Inspired by BufferApp

I just had a service go around with the BufferApp.com people. I continue to be amazed by the quality of my  brief email interactions with them.  It's a little over-the-top but still, I like it.  I wonder if I can get my support teams to have and share a little of this type of wild enthusiasm.

For example:
I contacted them with a suggestion which he took the time to understand and follow up on. So first point, he responded promptly and seemed to fully understand the problem. So far, not solved but it's a big problem that I highlighted. He gave me a great work-around.

As he gave me the work-around, he added: 

If I can ever help out with anything down the line, or if you have any feedback on how we could make Buffer more awesome for you, we'd love to hear it. We're here for you :)

Cheers!
Dave

I then gave him another suggestion, btw a really good one, which he acknowledged:

Oh wow, thank you so much for taking the time to detail this out. This is the type of thing that reminds us just how lucky we are to have the customers that we do. It's incredible that you would take the time to share your thoughts here and help us improve. :)

There are certainly a bunch of ways the analytics can be improved, and accurately breaking down the RTs a comments would certainly be a good step in that direction.

We are lucky to have a really close connection between our Happiness team and our Product team, so we'll be sharing your feedback with them and having them take a look at the options here. :) Please do send along any other thoughts, wishes, feedback, critiques, etc. that come to mind! 

Cheers!
