Customer Education : CE Mark on Products


Have you ever wondered what the CE mark you see on some products means?  No, it doesn’t mean Customer Education.




It’s an acronym for a French phrase (Conformite Europeene) that means European Conformity. It is a symbol of product quality and safety.  It is a manufacturer’s declaration that the product has been assessed and it complies with the essential requirements of the relevant European health, safety and environmental protection legislation and is therefore legally fit to be placed on the market within the European Union, Iceland, Norway and Lichtenstein .



It is like the United States’ FCC (Federal Communications Commission) and  Nigeria’s SON (Standards Organisation of Nigeria) markings on products. Customers should make it a point of duty to check if the products they are buying bear these markings to ensure their safety.



While you might be saying “but some manufacturers put these symbols on their sub-standard products without being assessed in some countries”, I say, look out for the symbol first, and I will educate you on a second level of safety and quality assurance in our subsequent blog posts. Be on the look-out by staying glued to Customercentrix on the various platforms. 


Remember, your safety is first your responsibility before it is the responsibility of others.

Do I hear you say clearly, they just  prefer the competition to you.  L et's get this straight, do you really think you are doing your customers a favour by offering them so much? (Great quality at a cheap price) How then could they be so unappreciative when the competition won't even go half the length you go to get them satisfied? No business is doing customers a favour by offering them the world; customers are rather doing you a whole world of favours by deciding to patronize you. Buying and selling of products and services all operate under the principles of perception ; customers buy based on their perception and you sell based on your perception. Call it your calculation if you so choose, it is still your perception. You

Customer Experience Starts with Customer Courtesy

The way you make a customer feel about you and your business or the company you work for determines if they would buy from you. We really cannot do business without the right impression. Customer courtesy is a vital component of customer experience and a determinant of customer satisfaction. It is the respect you accord customers as recognition of their value to your business. Many businesses display beautifully worded and framed service charters but act contrary because they lack the knowledge of customer courtesy and its benefit to their business or just choose to be non-chalant. Regardless of what side of the coin a business belongs to, customer experience stands a huge chance of being distasteful without customer courtesy. The common practice in non-customercentric firms is that the service charter remains the dream of management while the employees do as they please. Right from the very moment customers start seeking a business to patronize in your niche, or get attracted t
