SANTA CRUZ, CA--(Marketwire - February 26, 2009) - Plantronics, Inc. (
BusinessWeek's special report on customer service makes it clear that companies focused on protecting the customer experience, and not short-term cost gains, in today's difficult economy are rewarded with long-term brand loyalty. In fact, the best performers are investing in, not cutting, customer service programs to enhance satisfaction and differentiate from the competition. BusinessWeek identified the 25 "Customer Service Champs" by combining data from market research firm J.D. Power & Associates and supplemental surveys using the BusinessWeek Market Advisory Board.

"For more than 40 years, Plantronics has helped companies across the world improve customer service through products that improve audio intelligibility and reduce call times and data entry errors.
