It was a long day. We were on a mission, shopping for a necklace for a particular dress I'll be wearing for a special occasion this month. We visited three different jewelry departments in three swanky department stores: Bloomingdale’s, Neiman Marcus, and Saks.
The customer experience I had at each store was different—and it wasn’t until I hit Saks, where the saleswoman led the pack by miles—that I realized why she was so successful and why the first two failed.
