Zappos really embodies the company’s core value which is “Deliver WOW
through service”, which provides free shipping in both directions on all purchases.
It never fails to surprise customers for faster shipping and even offer 365-day
return policy. Due to the fact that it operates mainly through the web, the company
values and supports its customers and never did make them feel that they are less
significant. All products delivered are manufactured by different brand
manufacturers available. The responsibility on the quality and delivery of physical
goods lies with Zappos. Their example of being accountable to errors was shown
as one customer called in for the problem with her boots after a year of use and the
company humbly replaced it with new ones as well as letting her keep the old ones.

By that alone, I could say that Zappos really aims to give high value service and
support to their valued customers.

2.) Identify and Describe the primary, support, and general management
processes needed to execute a customer order at Zappos.
Zappos was coined as one of the world’s most innovative companies. It
managed to succeed even through crumpling economic downturns. In order to
reach that, the company executes three management processes such as primary,
support and general ones. Firstly, the primary process consists of having free-
shipping terms in both directions as well as pushing a 365-day return policy for all
products purchased. It really helps both the company and the customers since it
both leads to customer satisfaction. Secondly, the support processes shown was
when the company partners with every major manufacturer for the production of
their primary product which are shoes and other products like handbags, apparel,
sunglasses, watches, and electronics. These partnership helps not just the company
but also the other companies involved wherein both are gaining from each other.
Thirdly, the general management processes include local telemarketers who are
trained well not based on scripts but trained to use their wits to encourage
customers to buy more in the luxury of free-shipping. In here, telemarketers are
implored to use their imaginations and treat each actual phone call as a special
opportunity to wow the customers. I think their sophisticated computer system
“Genghis” is one of the most effective and efficient tool that Zappos had used to
manage their operations which also allows their employees to work more
effectively than ever.
