The episode emphasizes the critical role of rapid phone response times (under three rings) in preventing customer defection, proactive service appointment management, and leveraging post-purchase lifecycle engagement to boost retention. Key examples include using service BDCs to reduce advisor burnout and deploying recall management campaigns that increase warranty revenue by 25%.
