Celebrate National Customer Service Week – October 5-9, 2020!

Celebrated annually on the first full week of October, National Customer Service Week gives organizations the opportunity to provide meaningful recognition to the customer service professionals in their organization.

The History of National Customer Service Week

National Customer Service Week was established by the International Customer Service Association (ICSA), now PACE, in 1984 and proclaimed a national event by the U.S. Congress in 1992. National Customer Service Week is celebrated annually during the first full business week of October each year.
In 1992, Former U.S. Senators Robert Dole and Nancy Kassebaum, along with U.S. Representatives Dan Glickman and Pat Roberts, championed this dynamic legislation on Capitol Hill resulting in the U.S. Congress proclaiming the first full week of October as National Customer Service Week. The proclamation was the culmination of two years of persistent work and effort by ICSA members who, through letters and phone calls, contacted their congressmen urging support of National Customer Service Week.
Then, in October of 1992, then President George H. Bush, via Presidential Proclamation #6485, proclaimed the first full business week of each October to be National Customer Service Week!
According to John Kressaty, who served as President of the ICSA during these efforts, National Customer Service Week activities have far-reaching effects in October and throughout the year. “There are two main purposes of National Customer Service Week,” says Kressaty. “It lets you recognize the job that your customer service professionals do 52 weeks a year. The other purpose is to get the message across a wide range of business, government, and industry that customer service is very important along with bottom line profit in running a business,” explains Kressaty.
Since its inception in 1984, the ICSA has hosted National Customer Service Week each and every year. This year we established the Customer Service Weekly, the Official National Customer Service Week epublication and podcast: www.customerserviceweekly.org. And we have updated our LinkedIn Group: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/158733/ to share more on our events and educational materials.
And we still have our Official National Customer Service Week website: www.nationalcustomerserviceweek.org. This site can be used to inform and direct you to various resources for customer experience professionals and sponsors.
